You can view and save PowerVM® Editions code-generation
information using the Hardware Management Console (HMC). You might need to
do this if the PowerVM Editions code
that was provided for your server does not work.
You can view PowerVM Editions code-generation
information, and then save it to a file on a remote system or to a
file on removable media. The information used to generate your PowerVM Editions codes must
exactly match the information shown on the HMC PowerVM Editions Code Information
window. To update the information that is used to generate your PowerVM Editions codes, use
the PowerVM Editions Code
Information window to save the PowerVM Editions code information
to a file on a remote system or to a file on removable media. Then,
you can either attach the file to an email, or print the file and
fax it to your Capacity on Demand (CoD)
administrator.
