License requirements for migration
With the benefit of external virtualization, IBM Flex System V7000 Storage Node allows
customers to bring a system into their storage environment and very quickly and easily
migrate data from existing storage systems to IBM Flex System V7000 Storage Node.
In order to facilitate this migration, IBM allows customers 45 days from the date of purchase of
IBM Flex System V7000 Storage Node to use the external virtualization function for the
purpose of migrating data from an existing storage system to IBM Flex System V7000
Storage Node. Any use thereafter, and ongoing use of the external virtualization function of
IBM Flex System V7000 Storage Node, requires the purchase of a Flex System V7000
External Virtualization license at a quantity equal to the capacity managed under IBM Flex
System V7000 Storage Node.
Migrations performed at later points in time that are to completely replace other storage
systems with IBM Flex System V7000 Storage Node, thereby requiring temporary
virtualization of that external storage system to perform that replacement activity, are granted
a 45-day period for use of external virtualization without having to purchase a license to
complete such a migration effort.
You must make your sales representative aware of your intent and when you will be starting
this migration so that an end date can be tracked. It is your responsibility to ensure that they
are properly licensed for all external storage managed by IBM Flex System V7000 Storage
Node after those 45 days.
