2. Before you begin this task, you must check the error log and resolve
any current DS8000 problems. Contact IBM Support for assistance in
resolving these problems.
3.
Before you configure, disable or provide paths through any firewalls,
because they might interfere with DS8000 communication.
The easiest way to apply the feature activation codes is to download the activation
codes from the IBM Disk Storage Feature Activation (DSFA) Web site to your local
computer and then to import the file into the DS Storage Manager. If you cannot
access the DS Storage Manager from the same computer that you used to access
the DSFA Web site, you can download the file to a diskette or write down the
information. If you are using either of these latter methods, ensure that you have
your diskette containing the downloaded activation codes file or your paper that
contains the written activation codes before you begin the following steps.
1.
Ensure that the Import activation codes page is not open. You cannot have both
the Apply activation codes page and the Import activation codes page open at
the same time. You must close one in order to access the other.
2. In the navigation, select Real-time manager → Manage Hardware → Storage
images . On the Storage images main page, select the storage image that you
want to import the activation code for.
3. From the Select Action menu, select Apply activation codes . The Apply
Activation codes: Real-time page is displayed.
a. If you already imported your activation codes from a file or retrieved
existing codes from the storage unit, the values are displayed in the fields
and you can modify or overwrite them, as appropriate.
b. If you are importing your activation codes from a file that you downloaded
from the DSFA Web site, click Import key file . Once you complete the
import process, the data from the file is displayed.
c.
If you did not download your activation codes into a file, enter the codes
into the appropriate fields.
Notes:
a. For Models 9A2 and 9B2, you need to perform this process for both
images, one image at a time.
b. The Authorization level and Scope fields are populated based on
the information that is contained within the activation codes.
4.
Click
OK
to complete the process.
