Re: RAID and License Key
Hi,
For configuring advanced RAID options the license key is required. However for normal RAID setup like RAID 1+0 or RAID 5, advance license is not required.
You may refer the below link for installing a license key with ORCA.
http://www.scribd.com/doc/38937296/13/Installing-a-license-key-with-ORCA
or
Installing a license key with Array Configuration Utility (ACU).
If the controller supports SAAP, one can use ACU to install the licensee key and activate SAAP functionality.
To install a License Key in ACU:
- Open ACU and click the Configuration tab.
- Select a controller from the Controller/Device menu.
- In the Available Tasks panel, click Manage License Keys.
- Click Add License Key.
- Enter License Keynumber.
- Click Save
When activated with a registered license key, SAAP provides the following features.
- RAID 6 (ADG).
- RAID 60.
- Advanced Capacity Expansion.
- Mirror splitting and recombining in offline mode.
- Drive Erase.
- Performance optimization for video on demand.
To configure the above features, please refer to the Controller and/or Array Configuration Utility user guide. These features are dependent on the Smart Array Controller model, firmware and number of hard drives installed.
Regards,
Renji

Re: RAID and License Key
Software licenses make me nervous. May I please jump in with a few questions?
Lets say I buy the licence, install the Raid-6 and the system is up.
Two years later the controller fails. What happens to the license? What is the procedure?
--or--
The server fails. The motherboard fails and it has to be replaced. Was the licence keyed to the Server S/N?
These are all problems other people have faced so there must be simple answers ... I just can't find them

Re: RAID and License Key
If you have to replace the controller (in the case of stand-up card) or the system board, you simply re-enter the license key

Re: RAID and License Key
Hello,
I have an HP ProLiant DL360 G7 server with a Smart Array P410i, I get an error when executing the command:
ctrl slot=0 pd 1I:1:1 modify erase
Reason: Feature requires license key
My question is, where do I buy this license? I can not find where to buy it or buy it.
Thanks.
