COD boards are subject to the same limitations for mixed architectures and CPU speeds as system boards. Likewise, COD board software requirements, such as the Oracle Solaris Operating System (Oracle Solaris OS) or OpenBoot PROM version, are the same as those of system boards. For M8000/M9000 (high-end) servers, you can order COD boards at original purchase or at any time afterward. High-end servers support any combination of COD boards and system boards. M4000/M5000 (midrange) servers do no

COD CPU Allocation COD CPUs are activated either when a domain with a COD board is powered on or when a new COD board is installed and powered on. The XSCF firmware activates COD CPUs automatically on a first-come, first-served basis. However, you can reserve one or more COD permits for a particular domain. At board power on, the Service Processor determines which COD CPUs are in working order and requests COD permits for them. The XSCF firmware checks the COD database and current usage, de

When the domains are first powered on, four COD permits are assigned to COD CPUs in domain 0 and two to domain 1. The remaining four COD permits are available on a first-come, first-served basis to all four domains (0, 1, 2, and 3). Notes on Domain Configuration Note the following points when you configure domains using resources on COD boards. ■ To set the COD board to Uni-XSB When 3 COD permits or less are allocated to a COD board, there are CPUs which can't be used in Uni-XSB.

Note – Once you have used headroom to activate a COD resource, you are contractually obligated to purchase a COD permits for it. By default, COD resources arrive with headroom disabled. You can use the setcod command to establish it. However, if you already have COD permits for all your COD resources, configuring headroom has no effect. In that case, you need to install additional COD boards to retain your headroom capacity. You can also reduce or disable headroom at any time. While headro
