Step 1: Install licenses for the
replacement
node in ONTAP
You must install new licenses for the
replacement
node if the impaired node was using
ONTAP features that require a standard (node-locked) license. For features with standard
licenses, each node in the cluster should have its own key for the feature.
About this task
Until you install license keys, features requiring standard licenses continue to be available to the
replacement
node. However, if the impaired node was the only node in the cluster with a license for the feature, no
configuration changes to the feature are allowed. Also, using unlicensed features on the node might put you
out of compliance with your license agreement, so you should install the replacement license key or keys on
the
replacement
node as soon as possible.
The licenses keys must be in the 28-character format.
You have a 90-day grace period in which to install the license keys. After the grace period, all old licenses are
invalidated. After a valid license key is installed, you have 24 hours to install all of the keys before the grace
period ends.
Steps
1. If you need new license keys, obtain replacement license keys on the
in the My
Support section under Software licenses.
The new license keys that you require are automatically generated and sent to the email
address on file. If you fail to receive the email with the license keys within 30 days, you
should contact technical support.
2. Install each license key:
system license add -license-code license-key, license-key...
3. Remove the old licenses, if desired:
a. Check for unused licenses:
license clean-up -unused -simulate
b. If the list looks correct, remove the unused licenses:
license clean-up -unused
Step 2: Restore Storage and Volume Encryption functionality
After replacing the controller module or NVRAM module for a storage system that you
previously configured to use Storage or Volume Encryption, you must perform additional
steps to provide uninterrupted Encryption functionality. You can skip this task on storage
systems that do not have Storage or Volume Encryption enabled.
