Installing Licenses Using Fabric Manager License Wizard
To install licenses using the Fabric Manager License Wizard, follow these steps:
To install licenses on multiple switches, you do not need to log into each switch; however, the switches must be in the fabric you are viewing.
You see the license information in the Information pane, one line per feature.
You see the initial screen of the License Wizard.
The License Server URL changes depending on the vendor you select. If your URL is different, or if you select Other as the vendor, enter the correct license server URL.
When you check the check box for a switch, the PAK or license file name field for that switch becomes editable. The VDH=<serial number> for each switch is shown in the Host ID column.
You can install multiple licenses on the same switch using different PAKs. To do this, enter the PAKs separated by commas.
Fabric Manager accesses the appropriate license site and installs the licenses onto each switch. The status of each installation is displayed in the Status column, as follows:
- successInstall or uninstall operation completed successfully.
- inProgressLicense install or uninstall operation is in progress.
- corruptedLicenseFileLicense file content is invalid or corrupted.
- targetLicenseFileAlreadyExistTarget license file name already exists.
- invalidLicenseFileNameLicense file does not exist.
- duplicateLicenseLicense file is already installed.
- generalLicensingFailureGeneral error from License Manager.
- noneNo install operation is performed.
- licenseExpiryConflictLicense exists with a different expiration date for the feature.
- invalidLicenseCountLicense count is invalid for the feature.
- Click the Close button to close the wizard. To install more licenses at this point, you must close the wizard and launch it again.
