Using a trial license

The index_number variable is a valid license index number. The license index number can be
retrieved from the show license command output. For more information, refer to “Viewing
information about software licenses” on page 144.
NOTE
When removing a license on an FSX device running a release 08.0.00a image, we recommend an
immediate reboot.
Deleting a license on FCX and ICX devices
To delete all license files for a specific unit, enter the following command at the Privileged EXEC
level of the CLI:
Brocade# license delete unit 3 all
To delete a specific license file from a unit, enter the following command at the Privileged EXEC
level of the CLI:
Brocade# license delete unit 3 index 3
Syntax: license delete unit unit_id [all | index license_index]
The unit_id variable specifies the unit ID number.
The all option allows you to delete all license files for a specific unit.
The index license_index parameter specifies the software license file, and is generated by the
member unit. The license index number is the license file you want to delete from a unit. The
license index number is not unique across stack units, and the user must specify both the unit
number and the index number to delete a license from a specific unit. For example, the
FCX-ADV-LIC-SW license is installed on both stack unit 3, index 1, and stack unit 5, index 1.
Because the index numbers are the same, the user must specify both the unit number and the
index number to delete a license from a specific unit.
Using a trial license
NOTE
A trial license must be ordered and installed by a Brocade representative only.
A trial license enables demonstration and evaluation of a licensed feature. The trial license is valid
for a period of up to 45 days, and is renewable for an additional 45 days on the second time. A
licensed feature operating under a trial license has the same functionality (CLI and show
commands) as does a licensed feature operating under a normal license. You cannot install more
than one trial license of the same license ID on the device. Only one trial license of the same
license ID is operational.
