336 IBM z13s Technical Guide
Staged orders can have separate pricing. When the order is downloaded and activated, the
daily costs are based on the pricing at the time of the order. The staged orders do not have to
be installed in order sequence. If a staged order is installed out of sequence, and later an
order that had a higher price is downloaded, the daily cost is based on the lower price.
Another possibility is to store unlimited On/Off CoD LICCC records on the SE with the same
or separate capacities at any time, giving greater flexibility to quickly enable needed
temporary capacity. Each record can be easily identified with descriptive names, and you can
select from a list of records that can be activated.
Resource Link provides the interface that enables you to order a dynamic upgrade for a
specific z13s server. You are able to create, cancel, and view the order. Configuration rules
are enforced, and only valid configurations are generated based on the configuration of the
individual z13s server. After completing the prerequisites, orders for the On/Off CoD can be
placed. The order process is to use the CIU facility on Resource Link.
You can order temporary capacity for CPs, ICFs, zIIPs, IFLs, or SAPs. Memory and channels
are not supported on On/Off CoD. The amount of capacity is based on the amount of owned
capacity for the various types of resources. An LICCC record is established and staged to
Resource Link for this order. After the record is activated, it has no expiration date. However,
an individual record can only be activated once. Subsequent sessions require a new order to
be generated, producing a new LICCC record for that specific order.
Alternatively, the customer can use an automatic renewal feature to eliminate the need for a
manual replenishment of the On/Off CoD order. This feature is implemented in Resource
Link, and the customer must enable the feature in the machine profile. The default for the
feature is disabled. See Figure 8-12 for more details.
