Node Locking

Purchased licenses can be applied only to a specific HP DSS 4.x server. The node-locking process combines the license certificate with a unique ID from the HP DSS server. The unique ID appears on the About tab of the HP MFP DSS Configuration Utility as the MAC Address. This ID appears during and after the trial period. To activate the license certificate, record the MAC Address that appears on the About tab of the HP MFP DSS Configuration Utility and proceed to the HP Software License Manager Web site at licensing.hp.com. At this Web site, type the license certificate number and the MAC address. The Software License Manager activates licenses based on information located on the purchased license certificate(s) and the server ID of the HP DSS server. After this information is entered into the Software License Manager, the generated licenses are delivered by fax or e-mail.

Licenses from prior versions

The Secure Access and Communications license types found in earlier versions of HP DSS have been replaced with a single Workflow Process and Document Management license in HP DSS V4.0 and later. Secure Access and Communications licenses are automatically converted to a Workflow Process and Document Management license when the 4.x software is installed. Each legacy device uses one seat in the new Workflow Process and Document Management license. Although this provides full HP DSS functionality for current MFP models, older models support only their original digital-sending features. Use the General tab of the HP MFP DSS Configuration Utility to add and remove licenses.

See Upgrading from previous versions of HP DSS for more information about upgrading older licenses.
