Express Editions For Ibm I; Express Editions For Power 720 - IBM Power 720 Overview

1.9.1 Express Editions for IBM i

Express Editions for IBM i enable initial ease of ordering and feature a lower price than if you
ordered them a la carte or build-to-order. Taking advantage of the edition is the only way you
can use no-charge features for processor activations and IBM i user license entitlements. The
Express Editions are available only during the initial system order and cannot be ordered after
your system is shipped.
The IBM configurator offers these easy-to-order Express Editions that include no-charge
activations or no-charge IBM i user entitlements. You can modify the Express Edition
configurations to match your exact requirements for your initial shipment, increasing or
decreasing the configuration. If you create a configuration that falls below any of the defined
minimums, the IBM configurator replaces the no-charge features with equivalent function
regular charge features.
