DESCRIPTION
Use this command to configure and manage licenses for the Brocade FX8-24 extension blade on the slot
where the blade is installed.
Slot-based licenses allow you to select the slots the license will enable up to the purchased capacity and
thereby increase existing capacity without disrupting the slots for which licensed features are already
enabled.
There is a separate slot-based license key for each licensed feature supported on the blade. For
example, the Brocade FX8-24 supports slot-based license keys for each of the following features:
•

A license key with the specified capacity must be installed with the licenseAdd command before you can
enable the feature on a specified slot with the licenseSlotCfg command. Refer to the Fabric OS
Administrator's Guide for more information.
