Table 14 License Restrictions

Type of Restriction

Description

Unit of Measurement

 

 

 

For File System

The management server determines

Terabytes (TB)

Viewer

licensing for File System Viewer through

 

 

terabytes (TB). When you purchased File

 

 

System Viewer, you were given a number of

 

 

TB you were allowed by the management

 

 

server to monitor.

 

 

The management server detects the number

 

 

of TB that are being monitored on file

 

 

servers and verifies that number is at or

 

 

below the purchased amount.

 

 

You do not have to monitor everything

 

 

associated with your file server. You can

 

 

choose to manage only the mount points

 

 

that are important to you. Only the files

 

 

associated with these mount points are

 

 

counted toward the file server TB.

 

 

 

 

IMPORTANT: The management server Current Usage Summary is first updated six hours after the management server (AppStorManager) starts, and then the updates occur every 24 hours thereafter. Elements the management server has discovered before the update are not reflected in the Current Usage Summary table. The time for the update is determined when the management server is first started. For example, the first update of the Current Usage Summary table occurs six hours after the management server is first started. The following updates occur every 24 hours. If the management server is started for the first time at noon, the first update of the Current Usage Summary table would occur at 6 p.m. All following updates would always occur at 6 p.m.

MAPs are determined as described in Table 15 on page 169.

Table 15 Determining Managed Access Points

Element

Managed Access Point

 

 

Hosts

The managed access points (MAPs) are the number of Fibre Channel

 

ports with a minimum of one MAP. If a host has no Fibre Channel

 

ports, the software assumes one MAP. The software does count direct

 

attached storage, provided it is supported by the management server.

 

 

Switches

All ports on a switch are counted as MAPs.
