Sun Microsystems SL500 manual Delete a License Key File

Licensing Tasks

▼Delete a License Key File

Use this procedure to delete a license key file from an SL500 library.

You may need to delete a license key file if there is an error in an installed file. Sun will issue a new license key file with the same sequence number as the original, and you must delete the original license key file before installing the new one.

Caution – Deleting a license key file is an exceptional situation. Be sure it is what you really want to do before you begin this procedure. Having extra license key files installed on a library does not present any problems (for example, Capacity licenses that exceed the physical capacity of the library); the extra licenses are simply not used.

Caution – Deleting a Capacity license key file reduces the licensed capacity of the affected library module. This can result in orphaned cartridges and data that could be lost. See “Decreasing Licensed Capacity” on page 141 and “Orphaned Cartridges in Non-Partitioned Libraries” on page 140 for details.

Caution – Deleting a Partitioning license key file deletes the Partitioning feature from the library. See “Deleting the Partitioning Feature” on page 148 for details about the effects on the library configuration.

1.Use the SL Console to log in to the target library. See “Log in to the SL Console” on page 29 for details.
