Activation Process for CUoD Features
Note:
These activation procedures are provided as awareness for service and support personnel. The
customer is responsible for activating any installed CUoD features.
The process begins when you determine a potential need for more processing capability in the future and
want to have the hardware installed on the server now. If CUoD features are ordered for your server, they
are included in the server when it is delivered. To activate additional capacity when it is needed, use the
following steps:
1. Determine the additional capacity that you want to activate.
2. Contact your sales representative or business partner to place an order for specific processor CUoD
activation features.
3. The sales representative places an order to the system coordinator or feature coordinator for the
features you request. The order specifies the upgrade features to add.
4. To process the order, you must send the system Vital Product Data (VPD) to IBM in either of the
following ways:
v
Electronic process (Electronic Service Agent)
v
Web-based VPD entry. For details on how to submit the VPD either through the Electronic Service
Agent or using the Web, view the
Planning Guide for Capacity Upgrade on Demand
located at
http://www.ibm.com/servers/eserver/pseries/cuod/index.html.
5. After the activation code is received (from either the Web or the mailed copy), use the HMC to enter
the activation code. Detailed procedures are available in the
Planning Guide for Capacity Upgrade on
Demand
.
After you have finished the activation process, you can assign the activated processors to a partition. If
you are using dynamic partitioning (DLPAR), you need not reboot the system to use the processors. If you
are not using DLPAR, you must reboot the managed system before the newly activated processors can be
used.
Before adding processors to a partition that is running Linux, you must stop the Linux partitions and then
restart them after you have assigned the processors.
Begin using the new capacity. If you encountered any problems using the preceding process, see
http://www.ibm.com/servers/eserver/pseries/cuod/index.html.
Powering the System On and Off
For complete procedures to power on and power off the system in various system configurations running
various operating systems, see “Powering the System On” on page 780.
