Working with core machines

In the Cores area of the License Portal, you can perform a variety of tasks, including blocking and deleting cores. When you block a core machine, you automatically block the agents that it is protecting, which prohibits the agents from taking snapshots and stops consumption of the license pool.

To work with core machines
1
In the left navigation area of the License Portal, click Cores.
 
* 
NOTE: If you have a large number of cores, for your convenience, you can easily filter the cores list to search for a specific core. See the topic, Viewing and searching for cores for more information about searching the list of machines.
2
Select the Core(s), and, in the menu above the table, click the action you want to perform as described in the following table. (You can use the mouse to point and select multiple cores.)

Description

Block

Blocks the Core. When you block a core, it blocks the agents that it is protecting, which prohibits the agents from taking snapshots. It also stops the consumption of the license pool.A blocked core is still billed for the current month. It is not billed for the next month. The License Status displays as “Blocked.”

Unblock

Makes a blocked core visible again. When you unblock, you can select from the following options.

•
Unblock and Resume - Unblocks the Core and makes associated agents active again.
•
Unblock and Pause - Unblocks the Core, but the agents cannot take snapshots. You must navigate to the agents to resume protection.
NOTE: When a machine is paused, it is still counted in the license pool.
•
Unblock and Downgrade - Unblocks the Core and downgrades the license to a a trial license so that it is not consuming your license pool.

Delete

Deletes the Core from the License Portal.

Detach

Detaches a license from the Core, for example, removes a current license for your appliance from being associated with a Core without deleting the license.

These settings include total repository size, snapshot interval, log truncation, virtual standby exports, and more. The settings that are displayed are determined by the type of and number of licenses you have purchased.
