A customer purchased a z14 M02 (two drawer) 710 with 1TB of active memory and 2TB of pre-planned memory installed. They are planning for the release of a new product which will require, for several days, additional processor and memory capacity. They have a CIU (Customer Initiated Upgrade) contract already in place.
Utilizing CIU and OOCoD (On Off Capacity On Demand), which of the following options will satisfy the customer's requirement?
A. Temporarily activate twice the amount of owned processor capacity that is present but not characterized in the two drawers, and purchase increments of the pre-planned memory up to the amount that is present in the two drawers.
B. Temporarily activate all of the additional processor capacity that is present but not characterized in the two drawers, and purchase increments of the pre-planned memory up to the amount that is present in
the two drawers.
C. Temporarily activate all of the processor capacity that is present but not characterized in the two drawers, and temporarily add all the additional pre-panned memory increments up to the amount of that is present in the two drawers.
D. Temporarily activate twice the amount of owned processor capacity that is present but not characterized in the two drawers, and temporarily add up to twice the amount of the active memory using the pre-planned memory in the two drawers.
What IBM Z technology can be used to securely deploy application services using IBM Cloud Private, without having to change the application code to exploit the secure environment?
A. CPACF with Crypto Express
B. TKE Workstation
C. Crypto Express
D. Secure Service Container
A customer runs production on one z14, with a zEC12 as a backup. The customer is planning a 50% capacity increase on both machines.
