Reserved SB Setting Rules (3/4)
In some SB configurations, the amount of resources (the number of CPUs and/or the number of memory
modules (memory capacity)) decreases or increases after switching.
It is necessary to check the estimated performance and the estimated number of software licenses in
advance.
* If a volume license or package product is used in a Windows OS or if the SB being used is not an SB that was purchased together with the
enable kit, license authentication may be demanded after Reserved SB switching occurs.

A Reserved SB (CPU x 2) is set for the following
partitions:
Partition#0 (CPU x 2)
Partition#1 (CPU x 1)
When the Reserved SB is incorporated in partition#1,
the number of CPUs increases.
Two CPU licenses are required for partition#1.
