Licenseadd - HP StorageWorks 2/64 - Core Switch Command Reference Manual

licenseAdd

Adds license keys to switch.
Synopsis
licenseadd "license"
Availability
admin
Description
Use this command to add license keys to the system.
Some features of the switch and the fabric to which it is connected are optional, licensed products.
Without a license installed for such products, their services are not available.
After you enter a license, the licensed product is available immediately and the system does not need to
be rebooted. An exception to this general handling is that the switch must be rebooted if a fabric license is
added to a switch that lacks a fabric license. In this case, the switch must be rebooted to allow the
software to recognize the license and initialize itself correctly.
Also, there is special handling required when a trunking license is added to the switch. For a trunking
license to become effective, the trunk ports need to be refreshed using the commands
portEnable, or the switch must be refreshed using the commands
switchEnable.
