Monitoring license usage

Replication Manager assists in monitoring the license capacity, making it easy to track license usage,
especially in large and complex replication environments. Replication Manager functions can be used
within the licensed capacity of each copy product. Additional licenses are required when the target
volumes for pair configuration exceed the licensed capacity. You can view and monitor the used
capacity and copy license usage percentage for each copy product to prevent license expiry. You
can configure alerts to get notifications when copy license usage reaches a particular threshold or
exceeds the licensed capacity.
