a clustered environment, licensing is based on the cumulative number of installed and activated processors on each server in the cluster.

• The program may not run on some or all of the processors for which PoEs are required by the program's valuation method. • In the System z IFL environment, each IFL engine is considered a single physical processor. • Threading, a technique which makes a single processor seem to perform as two or more, does not affect the count of physical processors.
Doing work includes, for example, production, development, program maintenance, and testing. It also could include other activities such as mirroring of transactions, updating of files, synchronization of programs, data, or other resources (for example, active linking with another machine, program, database, or other resource, and so on), or any activity or configurations that would allow an active hot switch or other synchronized switch over between programs, databases, or other resources to occur.
