Installing a product license file

The trial license for NetVault is valid for 30 days. A band across the top of the WebUI displays a message about when the license is scheduled to expire. The color of the band, as described in the following list, indicates the number of days remaining in the trial period:

•
Yellow: The license has less than 21 days before it expires.
•
Light orange: The license has less than 14 days before it expires.
•
Dark orange: The license has less than 7 days before it expires.
•
Red: The license expired.
 
* 
NOTE: You can close the yellow and orange bands, but the red band remains until you install the permanent license.

To continue using the software after the expiry of the evaluation period, you must go to the License Management page and install the permanent license file for the server and installed plug-ins.

The server is licensed based on the NetVault Server Edition and the additional options that you have purchased. The clients do not require a permanent license file, unless there is a plug-in older than version 13.0 installed on the machine. Beginning with release 13.0, Clients and plug-ins do not require licenses installed on Client machines.

The permanent license file for NetVault is tied to the particular server where it is installed using the Machine ID. To obtain the permanent license file, locate the relevant Machine ID, and submit the request using the online licensing form.

fileInstalling the license file
To install the license file:
1
In the Navigation pane, click License Management.
2
On the License Management page, click Install License.

3
In the Choose License File/s dialog box, click Select a file, point to the “.dlv” file that contains the license key, and click Open.
4
In the dialog box, click OK to apply the selected license file.
After the file is installed successfully, a message is displayed.
