Enter License Strings screen (figure21 on page 41):
• The StorNext serial number from the StorNext box or CD.
• The total number of StorNext SAN clients (if any) you want to
license for your system. This is the total number of client
machines that are connected to a StorNext server through a fibre
channel or iSCSI interface.
• The StorNext server ID displayed on the screen. (In the figure, the
ID is 15F268AFA2.)
• The total number of distributed LAN clients (if any) you want to
license for your system. This is the total number of distributed
LAN clients connected to StorNext via a distributed LAN server.

9Quantum will email you a license string for SAN clients. If you are
using distributed LAN clients, they will also send you a separate
license string for distributed LAN client usage. When you receive the
license strings, copy and paste them into the License String field on
the Enter License Strings screen (figure21 on page 41).
