Selecting hosts for licenses

Previous Next



Selecting hosts for licenses

The Host Licensing Information page appears. It displays total licensed sockets, used sockets, and the remaining days left in a trial period.

NOTE: VM licenses include all VMs. Licenses for both VMware® and Hyper-V® VMs are drawn from the same socket count.
To select hosts for licenses:
1
View the CPUs Allowed value to confirm the number of sockets that are licensed for protection.

The number of licenses currently allocated is shown in the CPUs Used column.

The Licensed Hosts section lists the managed hosts, the number of sockets for each host, and the licensed features for that host.

The CPUs column indicates the license “cost” of each host.

2
In the Backup or Replication column, select or clear hosts until you have used all the available licenses, or until all your hosts are protected.
3
Click Save.
4
Click Next.
