Processor node features
These features specify the number and type of core processors in the processor node. All base frames
(model 993, 994, and 996) contain two processor enclosures (POWER9 servers) that contain the
processors and memory that drives all functions in the storage system.
Feature codes for processor licenses
Use these processor-license feature codes to plan for and order processor memory for your storage
system. You can order only one processor license per system.

Processor memory features
These features specify the amount of memory that you need depending on the processors in the storage
system.
Feature codes for system memory
Use these feature codes to order system memory for your storage system.
Note: Memory is not the same as cache. The amount of cache is less than the amount of available
memory. See the DS8000 Storage Management GUI.
