Replication Licensing

The Replication License is a single software license; it is unique to a single HP D2D Backup System and is
required on every appliance that will be used as a Replication Target. If you wish to replicate data to
multiple HP D2D Backup Systems, you require a separate license for each target appliance, appropriate
to the model type, and must repeat the activation process for each HP D2D Backup System.
NOTE:
The Replication license can only be used on the model for which it was purchased. For example, the
Replication License for a D2D250x series can only be used on a D2D250x Backup System. It cannot be used
on a D2D4xxx series.

Before you start

To activate your license you must first obtain a permanent License To Use (LTU) from the HP Licensing
website and then use the HP D2D's Web Management Interface to apply the LTU, activate the replication
feature and complete the licensing process. The HP Licensing website will ask you for:
• The HP entitlement order number for the HP D2D Replication license (found on the entitlement
certificate)
• The unique HP D2D Backup System serial number (found on the label on the top of the unit)
• Standard registration information, such as name and contact details
