entered in the Locking ID input field.
After the Find button is selected, the licenses belonging to the MAC address are dis-
played.
5. Activate the Rehost button.
In the subsequent dialog, define the MAC address to which the new license should
be linked.

Click Next.

Example:
HG 1500 V2 & V3:
– 6 features (Licenses) will be upgraded as a result of this transaction.
– 6 features (Licenses) will be disabled as a result of this transaction.
This means that all six available licenses have been linked with the new MAC ad-
dress. The old link with the HG 1500 board MAC address (Locking ID) was dis-
abled for all six licenses.
Click the Execute button. A new license key is generated.
8. After successful execution, the message "License Key Generation Complete" ap-
pears The generation information and license key data is displayed.
9. Steps 4 to 8 should be repeated for all HiPath 3000 systems.
Note: New licenses apply to the entire network. In other words, a single license key
is generated for the entire HiPath 3000/5000 network. This file is linked with the MAC
address of the HiPath 3000 control board with the lowest node number (node ID).
10. Invoke the License Management Center homepage.
11. Activate the "View Used Licenses and Certificates" function under "Management of
Used Licenses".
Various search criteria are displayed for invoking the generated license key.
