The following figure illustrates the use of Meter based Term license.
At the time of installing the Meter based Term license, if the usable capacity is within the Permanent
licensed capacity, the installed TB-Days remain dormant till the usable capacity exceeds the Permanent
licensed capacity. They are activated only after the Permanent license is completely used. The TB-Days
are used for the duration when the usable capacity exceeds the installed Permanent licensed capacity
and the exceeded capacity can be managed by the installed TB-Days.
NOTE:
•
After the installed TB-Days are activated, P9000 Application Performance Extender verifies the
remaining TB-Days every day after 1:00 PM and accordingly updates the TB-Days status on the
License screen - List of existing licenses section. For more information on the License screen, see
“
• If the installed TB-Days are used in the first half of a day, the TB-Days status is updated after
1:00 PM on the same day.
• If the installed TB-Days are used in the second half of a day, the TB-Days status is updated
after 1:00 PM on the next day.
•
An installed Meter based Term license cannot be removed.
For example, a Permanent license is installed on 11/30/2010 to monitor 50TB usable capacity. In
addition, 90TB-Days are also installed on the same day to monitor 10TB additional usable capacity
later for nine days. As the usable capacity is still within the Permanent licensed capacity, P9000
Application Performance Extender does not use the 90TB-Days. The following table lists the fields that
are updated on the License screen - List of existing licenses section when the 90TB-Days are installed
for a P9500 disk array record.
