Model ranges
Capacity on Demand (CoD)
Use of the Capacity on Demand (CoD) function provides the option of interrupt-free, tempo-
rarily limited performance enhancement. This function can be used for different usage
periods.
Usage of additional CPU performance
In addition to the CPUs which are activated by default one or more CoD processors can also
be used if this is contractually agreed. When required they are attached or detached during
ongoing operation.

Usage of additional system boards
On SX150 systems on which free XSBs are configured the CoD functionality must not be
confined to attaching and detaching CPUs which are located on a system board assigned
statically to the partition in question.
Entire system boards (CoD-XSBs) can be attached for a limited time and then detached
again; during this period only the CPUs located on them can be used. For details see the
chapter "Dynamic Reconfiguration" on page
System boards
Each system board can be operated in PSB or XSB mode. For each system board one
physical board can be configured in PSB mode, and up to 4 extended system boards in XSB
mode (i.e. on an SX150 system a total of 8 extended system boards can be used).
A system board has 8 processor slots, 8 slots for memory modules and 8 PCI slots. An
extension by 10 PCI slots is possible with the aid of a PCI/disk box. The extension is
required if XSBs 00-2 and 00-3 of the first and/or XSBs 01-2 and 01-3 of the second system
board are used. By default a memory module has a capacity of 4 GB and can optionally be
replaced by an 8-GB memory module.
