IBM Power Systems Technical University — Las Vegas, NV Why Capacity on Demand I need flexibility. My business is dynamic and I need to be able quickly respond to new demands. (And by the way, I only request funds from the board once a year. ) My budget is very tight. I don’t want to pay for something until I actually use it. 2 Taking Advantage of Capacity on Demand © 2010 IBM Corporation

IBM Power Systems Technical University — Las Vegas, NV Why Capacity on Demand I am championing a new computer application that will hopefully save my company a huge amount of money over time. But I need help getting it off the ground. We’re out of computing resource, but I still need to find a way to run a test. We need an offsite computer in case of disaster. It has to be able to support the key production workload at the home site, but we can’t afford to pay full price for a computer which will hopefully rarely be used. 3 Taking Advantage of Capacity on Demand © 2010 IBM Corporation

IBM Power Systems Technical University — Las Vegas, NV Usage Comments § Turn the processor/memory on …. It’s ok to turn on & off within a processor day, but there is no savings on a per-processor basis. There are no partial day credits. One hours usage or 24 hours usage cost the same. See the Capacity on Demand User's Guide. § A processor day can be longer than 24 -hours if the entire system is powered off. § You must not only stop using the On/Off activated processor, you MUST return it to system else “the meter keeps running”. § The actual system which calculates/measures the processor day does some rounding, ESPECIALLY when changing your request, and can be a little confusing. See the Capacity on Demand User's Guide for insights/examples. Use the report generated by the system. 25 Taking Advantage of Capacity on Demand © 2010 IBM Corporation

IBM Power Systems Technical University — Las Vegas, NV 6) Monthly Reporting: Electronic or Manual By the client contract described back in step 3), you, the client must report billing data to IBM, at least once per month, regardless of whether you have used temporary capacity during the period. You can use several methods to report information about your requests for temporary capacity provided, using IBM Electronic Service Agent™ (preferred), fax, or e-mail. You can view Co. D billing information and save it to a file on a remote system or to a file on removable media. If you choose to manually report the billing information, use the Co. D Billing Information window on the HMC to save the billing information. Then you can either attach the file to an e-mail or print it and fax it to your Co. D administrator. To view and save Co. D code-generation information: On/Off Use (in days) 1. In the navigation area of the HMC window, expand Systems Management. 2. Select Servers. 3. In the contents area, select the server on which you want to view and save the Co. D code information. 4. Select Tasks. Capacity on Demand 29 5 Select Capacity on Demand (Co. D). 6.

IBM Power Systems Technical University — Las Vegas, NV Utility Co. D automatically provides additional processor capacity on a temporary basis within the shared processor pool. Usage is measured in processor minute increments and is reported by the client via a web interface. Billing is based on the reported usage. For clients with unpredictable, short workload spikes who need an automated and affordable way to help assure adequate server performance is available as needed. • If permanent activation of processors is not cost efficient • If manual administrator of resources (like On/Off Co.

IBM Power Systems Technical University — Las Vegas, NV POWER 6 Utility Co. D Economics vs. Perm Activation !! Utility Co. D is NOT “rent-to-own” !! (no credit toward purchase price) Rule of thumb: If activating 1 processor at a time, after about 2400* to 9200* processor minutes it might have been better to purchase the processor activations. NOTE this break even point does not apply if activating more than 1 processor at a time. How to calculate this for your situation: – – Price of 100 processor minutes for your environment (with i /without i) : mmm Price of a permanent processor activation: ppp Price of maintenance on newly activated processor: serv Price of operating system for an additional processor entitlement plus its SW Maintenance: osos – If needed, the price of an IBM i 5250 Enterprise Enablement: tptp – If needed, the price of Power. VM and other software: misc mmm x (number 100 min break even) = (ppp + serv + osos + ? tptp? + ? misc? ) If more than one processor activated, multiple the break even number of minutes by the maximum number of processors activated. 48 * Different operating system options, and the different software/operational requirements may change this calculation for your company.

IBM Power Systems Technical University — Las Vegas, NV Utility Co. D Economics vs. On/Off Processor Day !! Utility Co. D is NOT “rent-to-own” !! (no credit toward purchase price) If you are going to run Utility for 60* minutes in a day, it is about the same price as buying 1 On/Off processor day. How to calculate this for your situation : – Price of 100 processor minutes for your environment (with i /without i) : mmm – Price of a processor day for your environment (with i/without i) : ddd – ddd / mmm = decimal ratio (USA 9117 example: ratio = 0. 60 indicating breakeven less than 100 minutes) – Decimal ratio x 100 minutes = number minutes breakeven assuming max of 1 processor activated during Utility Co. D If a variable number of processors is activated using Utility Co. D, then the breakeven point is calculated by – Variable adjustment factor = vaf = (peak number of processors activated) minus (minimum number of processors activated) – Break even = ( ddd / mmm ) x 100 x vaf 50 * Different operating system options, and the different software/operational requirements may change this calculation for your company.

IBM Power Systems Technical University — Las Vegas, NV Reserve & Utility Co. D Compared Reserve (POWER 5) and Utility (POWER 6/7) Co. D similarities – Both are an automatic way to activate temporary capacity. Inactive processors are placed into the shared processor pool. When the server recognizes that the number of base (purchased/active) processors assigned across uncapped partitions has been 100% utilized, and at least 10% of an additional processor is needed, then that standby capacity is used. Reserve and Utility Co. D differences: – Reserve Co. D: You buy processor days in advance. Usage not reported to IBM. No contracts required. – Utility Co. D: You buy processor minutes either after using or in advance. Usage reported to IBM when you decide it is needed via the Web.
