Configuring feature key

Feature keys verify ownership of the Element Manager and optional features that can be purchased

for the Element Manager. The feature key, which is encoded with a director’s serial number, can

only be configured on the director to which it is assigned.
A feature key is a string of alphanumeric characters consisting of both uppercase and lowercase.

The following is an example of a feature key format: XxXx-XXxX-xxXX-xX.

NOTE:

The total number of characters may vary. The key is case sensitive and it must be entered

exactly, including the dashes.

The feature key, which is encoded with a director’s serial number, can only be configured on the

director to which it is assigned.
You can enable the feature key with the director online. However, if a current feature is disabled

by activating a new feature key, you must take the director offline before enabling the new feature

key.
Display the Configure Feature Key dialog box by choosing Features from the Configure menu on

the menu bar.

feature is enabled.
