Configuring licenses
The HP StoreOnce Backup system requires licensing for some features:
• Each storage shelf arrives with a license that must be loaded, further capacity upgrades also
arrive with a license included.
• There is no licensing required for VTL or NAS emulations.
• VTL and NAS replication requires a license on the target site.
• OST/StoreOnce Catalyst devices require a license to be used at both source and target – but
DO NOT require an additional replication license.
• Security Pack features (Data in Flight Encryption, Data at Rest Encryption and Secure Erase)
require a security license.
Types of licensing
There are two types of licensing:
• Full license (not time limited)
• Instant on or Demo (time limited to 90 days): This allows you to try out licensable functionality
before paying for a full license for any of the above features.
Applying the Instant On license
NOTE: The Instant On license is sometimes called the Demo license.
The Instant On license is pre-installed in all StoreOnce Backup systems and is a single license that
enables two features, StoreOnce Catalyst and StoreOnce Replication, for a period of 90 days.
This allows customer to try some of the advanced features in StoreOnce units without having to
purchase a full licence in advance.
NOTE: This license cannot be used with capacity expansion nor with the Security Pack.
To continue using these features, separate licenses must be purchased for StoreOnce Catalyst and
Replication and applied within the 90 day period. If they are not, data is not lost but:
• Replication: Replication Target libraries will continue receiving replicated data, however, you
will receive notification every 24 hours that your license has expired.
• Catalyst: Catalyst stores will still be available as target devices for backup, however, you will
receive notification every 24 hours that your license has expired.
To apply an Instant On license
Use StoreOnce CLI commands as follows:
• license show to show the current license status
• license add demo to apply the 90–day license for all licensable features.
See the HP StoreOnce Backup system CLI Reference Guide for more information.
Applying a full license
There is a separate full license for each purchased licensable function, including capacity expansion.
