Processor Value Unit (PVU)
PVU is the unit of measure by which this program is licensed. PVU entitlements
are based on processor families (vendors and brands). A Proof of Entitlement
(PoE) must be obtained for the appropriate number of PVUs based on the level
or tier of all processor cores activated and available for use by the program
on the server. Some programs allow licensing to less than the full capacity
of the server's activated processor cores, sometimes referred to as sub-capacity
licensing. For programs which offer sub-capacity licensing, if a server
is partitioned utilizing eligible partitioning technologies, then a PoE must
be obtained for the appropriate number of PVUs based on all activated processor
cores available for use in each partition where the program runs or is managed
by the program. Refer to the International Passport Advantage Agreement
Attachment for Sub-Capacity Terms or the program's License Information to
determine applicable sub-capacity terms. The PVU entitlements are specific
to the program and may not be exchanged, interchanged, or aggregated with
PVU entitlements of another program.
For general overview of PVUs for processor families (vendors and brands),
go to
- http://www-306.ibm.com/software/lotus/passportadvantage/ pvu_licensing_for_customers.html

Authorized User
Authorized User is the unit of measure by which this program is licensed.
An Authorized User is an individual (named or unnamed) within or outside of
your enterprise. The program may be installed on one or more computers or
servers and accessed by the number of users authorized by the Proof of Entitlement
(PoE). You must have an entitlement for each Authorized User accessing the
program or any program component in any manner directly or indirectly (for
example, via a multiplexing program, device, or application server) through
any means.

IBM has
transformed its delivery of hardware and software support services to help
you achieve higher system availability. Electronic Services is a Web-enabled
solution that offers an exclusive, no-additional-charge enhancement to the
service and support available for IBM servers. These services are designed
to provide the opportunity for greater system availability with faster problem
resolution and preemptive monitoring. Electronic Services comprises two separate,
but complementary, elements: Electronic Services news page and Electronic
Services Agent.
The Electronic Services news page is a single Internet entry point that
replaces the multiple entry points traditionally used to access IBM Internet services
and support. The news page enables you to gain easier access to IBM resources
for assistance in resolving technical problems.
The Electronic
Service Agent is no-additional-charge software that resides on your server.
It monitors events and transmits system inventory information to IBM on a periodic,
client-defined timetable. The Electronic Service Agent automatically
reports hardware problems to IBM. Early knowledge about potential problems enables IBM to
deliver proactive service that may result in higher system availability and
performance. In addition, information collected through the Service Agent
is made available to IBM service support representatives when they help answer
your questions or diagnose problems. Installation and use of IBM Electronic
Service Agent for problem reporting enables IBM to provide better support and service
for your IBM server.
