If optional hardware has been installed before delivery, it will already be licensed. You do not need to
follow the instructions in this chapter.
When installing optional hardware after initial delivery, use the StoreOnce Management Console to apply
licenses and validate optional hardware.

The optional hardware kit includes a license entitlement certificate, which contains the information
required to obtain your unique LTU (License to Use) key.

Redeem licenses individually so that you obtain a license key for each Network or Fibre Channel
controller card.
