Applying a Right-To-Use (RTU) Codeword




	IMPORTANT: Codewords must be applied in the sequence in which they are obtained.

Licensing a Processor

An inactive processor must be licensed prior to activation. The Instant Capacity licensing procedure is as follows:

Purchase the processor enablement product from HP (contact your HP sales representative to accomplish this) — HP sends you a letter containing information on how to obtain a RTU codeword for processor activation.
Acquire a right-to-use (RTU) codeword from the Utility Pricing Solutions web portal (located at http://www.hp.com/go/icod/portal).
Apply the RTU codeword using the icod_modify command with the -C option. Note that the -C option is in uppercase.

Here is an example session of applying a processor RTU codeword using icod_modify -C:

Example 4-2 Applying a RTU Codeword

/usr/sbin/icod_modify -C mDwvj0M.fbHhKC9.byrgc8k.Pc7PjMt-1cp63H9.29xrDLU.g2CJhQM.RzuYyd6

The following valid codeword has been applied to the complex:
 
    Right-to-Use Codeword
    1 CPUs
 
Execute the icod_stat(1M) command to see the results of the application of this codeword.
 
NOTE:    Application of Right-to-Use codewords does not result in          the activation of components.  Components must be          activated separately.




	NOTE: The application of the codeword increments the count of `Licensed processors that can be activated` in the output of the icod_stat command.
