Feature Licenses

Strings

ADIC issues a DataMgr license based on the amount of disk space each client machine mounts for management. Capacity-based license levels are described below:

Level 1 = Less than or equal to 5GB.

Level 2 = Over 5GB but less than or equal to 25GB.

Level 3 = Greater than 25GB.

The license is entered when installing the BFS component. The BFS provides the licenses needed by the individual DMFS clients. (For a description of DataMgr components, refer to “Components” on page 1-4in DataMgr Overview.)

A separate authorization string is needed for the optional features below. For a description of these features, refer to the Storage Policies chapter in DataMgr Overview.

File Replication.

Multi-tier Migration.

File Import.

During installation you are asked to enter either:

A permanent authorization string.

Or, a temporary 30-day product key.

Authorization strings have the following format: xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxx. You can enter the authorization string in one of the following ways:

Upper or lower case.
