usage rights, iCAP cores can be turned on by the iCAP software or during installation. Cores
with usage rights are activated with the icapmodify command (or the vparmodify command
in a virtual partition) while HP-UX is running.

iLO

HP Integrated Lights-Out. An application that allows you to remotely configure, update, and
operate server blades and standalone systems.

inactive logical
server

A

logical server

that contains metadata but is not currently bound to a specific physical server

or system. Inactive logical servers that have never been activated might or might not be bound
to storage.
See also active logical server, logical server.

Instant Capacity

See iCAP.

Integrated
Lights-Out

See iLO.

Integrity Virtual
Machines

See Integrity VM.

Integrity VM

HP Integrity Virtual Machines. A soft partitioning virtualization product that allows you to
install and run multiple systems (

virtual machines

) on the same physical host system (Integrity

server or nPartition). The Integrity server or nPartition acts as a

VM Host

for the

virtual machines

(also referred to as guests). The virtual machines share a single set of physical hardware
resources, yet each

virtual machine

is a complete environment in itself and runs its own instance

of an operating system (referred to as a guest OS).
See also virtual machine, VM Host.

invalid data

In

HP Insight Capacity Advisor software

, data that could potentially skew reporting results and

lead to inaccurate or misleading conclusions when capacity planning. Examples of events that
Capacity Advisor can recognize as potential sources of invalid points include the following:

System downtime during a data collection period

Data manually marked by the user as invalid

Partial collection from a virtual machine or a VM host

See also missing data, valid data.

IPM

HP Insight Control power management. An integrated power monitoring and management
application that provides centralized control of

server

power consumption and thermal output

at the level of the data center. It extends the capacity of data centers by enabling you to reduce
the amount of power and cooling required for ProLiant and Integrity servers.

Itanium®-based
systems

Systems built on any version of the Intel® Itanium® architecture.

logical server

A feature provided by

HP Insight Virtualization Manager software

, a logical server is a set of

configuration and metadata that you create, activate, and assign to operate within a physical
or

virtual machine

. An

active logical server

can be moved from one location to another, and its

characteristics can be modified. This feature allows you to populate an enclosure, load balance
servers, and evacuate servers in case of disaster; it allows you to

provision

resources only when

needed and increase utilization of limited compute resources.
See also active logical server, inactive logical server.

LTU

License to use. One of the three main components of

HP Insight Global Workload Manager software

for Integrity (gWLM)

:

CMS

, agents, and LTU for each agent. The CMS allows you to control and

monitor gWLM. The agents run on the systems where you are managing workloads. You install
an LTU on each system that runs an agent in order to continue full agent functionality beyond
the initial trial period.

managed resource

A resource that can be allocated and controlled by

HP Insight Virtualization Manager software

.

Managed resources include:

cores

, memory, disks, and I/O bandwidth.

managed system

A

server

or other

system

that can be managed by HP Systems Insight Manager software from a

CMS

. A managed system can be managed by more than one CMS.

managed
workload

A

workload

that is managed by

HP Insight Global Workload Manager software for Integrity (gWLM)

.
