Cell Board COD
Cell Board CODCell Board COD
Cell Board COD
With cell board COD, Superdome PA-8800 servers can be populated with PA-8800 cell boards (CPU and memory) and it is
no longer necessary to pay for the additional cell boards (CPU and memory) until the customer uses them. Additional CPUs
and cell boards can be activated instantly with a simple command providing immediate increases in processing power and
memory capacity to accommodate application traffic demands.
In the unlikely event that a cell board fails, the HP system will replace the cell board at no additional charge. The COD cell
board brings the system back to full performance and capacity levels, reducing downtime and ensuring no degradation in
performance.
Please note the following when when ordering Instant Capacity sx1000 cell boards:
only Instant Capacity processors and Instant Capacity memory can be ordered.
the maximum memory needed must be ordered because it is not possible to purchase additional Instant Capacity
memory without ordering the Instant Capacity Cell Board upgrade product, A9913A.
When additional capacity is required, additional cell boards can be brought online. The COD cell boards are each
activated with a single command.
Cell board Capacity on Demand (COD) can be ordered pre installed on Superdome servers.
