Each On/Off CoD-enabled z13s server is entitled to no-charge 24-hour test. The test has
no IBM charges that are associated with temporary hardware capacity, IBM software, or IBM
maintenance. The test can be used to validate the processes to download, stage, install,
activate, and deactivate On/Off CoD capacity.
The test can last up to of 24 hours, commencing on the activation of any capacity resource
that is contained in the On/Off CoD record. Activation levels of capacity can change during
the 24-hour test period. The On/Off CoD test automatically stops at the end of the 24-hour
period.
In addition, you can perform administrative testing. During this test, no additional capacity is
added to the z13s server, but you can test all of the procedures and automation for the
management of the On/Off CoD facility.

Figure 8-13 On/Off CoD order example
The example order in Figure 8-13 is an On/Off CoD order for 100% more CP capacity, and for
one IFL, and two SAPs. The maximum number of CPs, ICFs, zIIPs, and IFLs is limited by the
current number of available unused PUs in the installed CPC drawers. The maximum number
of SAPs is determined by the model number and the number of available PUs on the already
installed CPC drawers.
