does not apply to the HP SN8000B 4-Slot SAN Director Switch.)
Temporary license support
HP now supports Universal Temporary Licenses. To obtain the Universal Temporary Licenses, select
the StorageWorks Software Demo & Evaluation Downloads option at the HP website:
www.software.hp.com.
The following list of licenses are available as Universal Temporary licenses. This means the same
license key can be installed on any switch running Fabric OS 6.3 or later that supports the specific
feature. Universal Temporary license keys can be installed only once on a particular switch, but
can be applied to as many switches as desired. Temporary use duration (the length of time the
feature is enabled on a switch) is provided with the license key. All Universal Temporary license
keys have an expiration date beyond which the license can no longer be installed on any unit.
