Activating COD Resources

▼ To Purchase COD Hardware Activation Options

When you use the unused COD CPU which is mounted on the COD board you've
purchased, contact our sales representative to purchase the COD permits in
accordance with the number of CPUs which you make available.
To purchase the COD permits, following information is required:
Number of CPUs you newly make available
Chassis HostID of the system (when ordering server-specific COD permits)
You can verify the Chassis HostID by logging into XSCF console and using the
showcod command.
After you purchase the COD permit, a COD key is sent from Fujitsu.

▼ To Install a COD Key

This procedure tells you how to install the key Fujitsu sent you to activate COD
permits on your server.
If headroom is enabled, this procedure decreases headroom to compensate for the
added COD permits. This automatic reduction in headroom is designed to avoid
accidental abuse of headroom. You can increase headroom again manually after
installation. See
