software key is provided when the enablement feature is ordered, which is applied
to the server. An IPL is not required to enable the server. The key is specific to an
individual server and is permanent. It cannot be moved to a different server.
The additional CPU resource used to expand memory is part of the CPU resource
assigned to the AIX partition running Active Memory Expansion. Normal licensing
requirements apply.
Power 750 Capacity BackUp (CBU) capability
(Applies to IBM i only)
The Power 750 systems' CBU designation can help meet your requirements for a
second system to use for backup, high availability, and disaster recovery. It enables
you to temporarily transfer IBM i processor license entitlements and 5250 Enterprise
Enablement entitlements purchased for a primary machine to a secondary CBU-
designated system. Temporarily transferring these resources instead of purchasing
them for your secondary system may result in significant savings. Processor
activations cannot be transferred.
The CBU specify feature 0444 is available only as part of a new server purchase.
Certain system prerequisites must be met and system registration and approval are
required before the CBU specify feature can be applied on a new server. Standard
IBM i terms and conditions do not allow either IBM i processor license entitlements
or 5250 OLTP (Enterprise Enablement) entitlements to be transferred permanently
or temporarily. These entitlements remain with the machine they were ordered for.
When you register the association between your primary and on-order CBU system,
you must agree to certain terms and conditions regarding the temporary transfer.
After a CBU system designation is approved and the system is installed, you can
temporarily move your optional IBM i processor license entitlement and 5250
Enterprise Enablement entitlements from the primary system to the CBU system
when the primary system is down or while the primary system processors are
inactive. The CBU system can then better support failover and role swapping for
a full range of test, disaster recovery, and high availability scenarios. Temporary
entitlement transfer means that the entitlement is a property transferred from the
primary system to the CBU system and may remain in use on the CBU system as
long as the registered primary and CBU system are in deployment for the high
availability or disaster recovery operation.
The primary system for a Power 750 (8233-E8B) server can be:
9179-MHB
9117-MMB
8233-E8B
9117-MMA
9406-MMA
9406-570
8234-EMA
8204-E8A
9409-M50
9406-550
These systems have IBM i software licenses with an IBM i P20 or P30 software tier.
The primary machine must be in the same enterprise as the CBU system.
Before you can temporarily transfer IBM i processor license entitlements from the
registered primary system, you must have more than one IBM i processor license
on the primary machine and at least one IBM i processor license on the CBU server.
An activated processor must be available on the CBU server to use the transferred
entitlement. You can then transfer any IBM i processor entitlements above the
minimum one, assuming the total IBM i workload on the primary system does
not require the IBM i entitlement you would like to transfer during the time of the
transfer. During this temporary transfer, the CBU system's internal records of its
