Exporting License Keys - Brocade Communications Systems A7533A - Brocade 4Gb SAN Switch Base Administrator's Manual

A Web Tools license must be installed on a switch before Fabric Manager can recognize the switch.
All other licenses can be installed using Fabric Manager.

EXPORTING LICENSE KEYS

You can export the license keys of multiple switches to a single file. You can even export keys from
different switches in different fabrics to one file. The file matches the license keys to the WWN of
the appropriate switch so you can quickly and easily import the keys at any time.
You should export license keys from healthy switches to a file so you can restore the licenses if
switches fail. If for any reason you need to recover your license keys, import those keys from the file
you created.
