Overview
The StorTrends® iTX software comes with a License Key that is valid for a trial period
of 30-days and has most of the features enabled. Following your 30-day trial period, you
can upgrade to an unlimited or customized license by entering the appropriate license key
that you obtain from your AMI Support Representative.
The license can be updated via the Update License button. The Update License screen
provides you with the StorTrends® iTX Service Key that will be required any time you
make changes or upgrades to the licensing of your product.
Note:
Your Service Key is required in order for your License Key to be generated. Each iTX
Service Key is generated from hardware that is specific to a single iTX unit and thus it
cannot be used to license or upgrade any other iTX devices. Also note that you can email
yourself a copy of the Service Key by clicking on the Email Service Key button that you
can later forward on to AMI Support Representatives when you're ready to make changes.
After your changes have been processed by an AMI Support Representative, you'll
receive a new license key in the form of a text document. After you save the new key to a
location on your hard drive, use the Browse button to navigate to the location of that file,
and then simply select the Update License button to complete the process.
