memory capacity to accommodate application traffic demands.
In the unlikely event that a cell board fails, the HP system will replace the cell board at no additional charge. The COD cell
board brings the system back to full performance and capacity levels, reducing downtime and ensuring no degradation in
performance.

When additional capacity is required, additional cell boards can be brought online. The COD cell boards are each
activated with a single command.
