Adding or Upgrading Licensable Features

You can increase the functionality of your library by purchasing licenses

for the following upgrades:

• Capacity on Demand (COD)

• Advanced Reporting - includes custom reports and logs and Control

Path Failover (CPF) functionality.

• Encryption Key Management (EKM)

For more information about these features, see Licensable Features on

page 12.

A license key can be applied to only one library and is tied to the library's

serial number. If the license is not installed when you receive your

library, you will receive a

License Key Certificate

that contains an

authorization code and instructions on how to obtain your license key

from the Quantum Web site. Once you install the license key on the

library, the feature becomes available.

About License Keys Details about license keys include:

• An authorization code to obtain a license key can be used one time

only.

• A license key consists of 5 characters randomly selected from the

following allowable characters: a-h, j-n, p-t, v-z, 2-9, and the

ampersand character (@). Alpha characters are always lower case.

• A given license key can only be used on the library to which it is

assigned and cannot be transferred to another library. The key is

verified when it is applied to the library to make sure it is the proper

key associated with the library serial number.

• License keys do not expire.

Once installed on the library, license keys cannot be removed (unless you

replace the library chassis or system control board (SCB).

• If you replace the library chassis: The license key is associated with

the serial number of the library. If you replace your library chassis,

you must replace all your installed license keys. Request replacement

license keys from Quantum.
