Licensing your console
The Storage Mirroring Data Migration console is used to perform Storage Mirroring Data
Migration installations on other servers, and it is used as a license manager to manage
your Storage Mirroring Data Migration source server licenses. Before you can install
Storage Mirroring Data Migration on source servers or before you can manage your
source server licenses, you must first license your Storage Mirroring Data Migration
console. Licensing the console links the console to a specific machine. Any user on that
machine can use the console, but the console license cannot be used on another
console running on another machine. You will not be able to manage the source server
licenses on one console with another console. The recommended configuration is to
select one machine that will be used to perform all Storage Mirroring Data Migration
server installations and to handle all Storage Mirroring Data Migration source server
licensing.
Note:
If you want to perform an installation on a target server or on a source server
that will be using a Storage Mirroring license, you do not need to license the
Storage Mirroring Data Migration console.
You will not be able to install a Storage Mirroring Data Migration server on the
same machine where you are running the Storage Mirroring Data Migration
console.
