License Keys; Temporary Key - HP XP20000/XP24000 User Manual

License Keys

A license key is a textual key that functions as a password because it is entered into Remote Web
Console and unlocks the protection of an option. Because each license key is generated with a
storage system serial number and option ID input, each storage system requires a unique license
key code. License key codes for each option (including the Java application) and storage system
are provided when you purchase program product options.
To input the license key, enter a license key code or a license key file containing multiple license
key codes. A license key file is provided when you purchase program product options.

Temporary Key

A temporary key is for trial use. 75 days after the temporary license key is installed (or when there
are 45 days left before the expiration), a warning message is displayed on the Remote Web
Console main window when you start the Remote Web Console option. 120 days after the
temporary license key is installed, the temporary license key expires. A message appears warning
the user of the expiration of the license key, and the license key expiration is also reported to the
host. After the temporary key has expired, you cannot re-install the temporary key for 180 days.
When the license key for a program product expires, the license key for a program product
that requires the expired program product will be also disabled.
