PowerVM Editions is one of the Capacity on Demand advanced functions.
Capacity on Demand advanced functions are also referred to as Virtualization
Engine systems technologies, or Virtualization Engine technologies (VET).
Use the following procedure to locate your VET code and then install the code on
your blade server.
1.
Start the Integrated Virtualization Manager (IVM) if it is not running already.
2.
In an IVM session, enter the
lsvet -t code
command to list activation
information that you must supply when ordering the new VET activation code.
The information returned by the
lsvet
command resembles the following
example:
sys_type=7998,sys_serial_num=10-0025A,anchor_card_ccin=52BE,
anchor_card_serial_num=00-7000069, anchor_card_unique_id=71010809449A1501,
resource_id=CA1F,activated_resources=0000,sequence_num=0040, entry_check=20
You must supply the part in bold when you request the activation code.
3.
Send a note requesting the VET activation code for your replacement
management (anchor) card to the System p Capacity on Demand mailbox at
pcod@us.ibm.com.
Include the following fields and their values from the information you received
after running the
lsvet
command:
v
sys_type
v
sys_serial_num
v
anchor_card_ccin
v
anchor_card_serial_num
v
anchor_card_unique_id
Include a statement similar to this:
Please provide a VET activation code for the new
management card (anchor card) in my blade server.
The System p Capacity on Demand site then generates your code and posts
your VET activation code on their Web site.
4.
Go to the Capacity on Demand Activation code Web page to retrieve your
code.
a.
