Change lease operation
To modify the starting or ending dates of the service, or to extend or reduce the lifetime of the
service, use the Change Lease Period operation.
To change a service lease period
1. Open the infrastructure orchestration console, self service portal, or organization administrator
portal
2. Select the Services or My Services tab
3. Select a service and click Details or View Details
4. From the Actions or Server Actions list, select Change service lease period.
Change lease tasks include:
•
Validating the request for a new lease period
•
Modifying servers (server blades or virtual machine hosts) allocation for a new lease period
•
Modifying network and IP addresses allocation for a new lease period
•
Modifying disk allocation for a new lease period
•
Obtaining approval to extend a lease
NOTE: Reducing a lease period does not require approval.
•
Executing custom actions
•
Sending notifications
After successfully completing a Change Lease Period operation, infrastructure orchestration modifies
the lease period for the infrastructure and updates the allocation of each resource for the new lease
period. If a resource is not available or an administrator rejects the request, the Change Lease
Period operation fails.
When a lease on an infrastructure service expires, infrastructure orchestration deactivates the
service. This action preserves all the logical servers in the service, and retains all resource allocations
except for physical servers, which are freed for other uses. Deactivating a service is the default
policy for handling a lease expiration. The administrator can change this policy to:
•
ignore the lease expiration
•
de-provision the infrastructure service on lease expiration
The lease end policy can be changed in the ..\Program Files\HP\Matrix infrastructure
orchestration\conf\hpio.properties
file.
# Specifies the lease period end policy.
# Acceptable values (not case sensitive):
# - Ignore = Simply ignore the lease period ending.
