Installing Licensed Features

Before creating storage pools and virtual disks, you should install any licensed features (such as
RAID 6 and SATAssure) and activate the associated licenses.
License key generation requires that you have your feature license number, JBOD enclosure serial
number, and controller ID information. To complete license key generation, go to the SGI licensing
site, http://www.sgi.com/support/licensing/special.html.
See the SGI customer letter that accompanies your feature license order for licensing instructions.
