• On 02/08/2011, the License Capacity shows 50TB, –590TB-Days
NOTE:
If 90TB-Days are completely used in the second half of 12/11/2010, P9000 Performance Advisor
enters 60 days grace period on the same day but updates the License screen - License Status section
only after 1:00 PM on 12/12/2010. In this case, the License Capacity shows 50TB, –10TB-Days on
12/12/2010.
For information on calculating the appropriate TB-Days to end the grace period and also read
additional scenarios, see “Exceeding Meter based Term licensed capacity and grace
period” on page 44.
A Meter based Term license least count is 1TB-Days. By default, fractions of a TB of usable capacity
is considered as 1TB and fractions of a day is considered as one day.
Example scenario 3
Consider the following scenario:
1. A P9000 disk array has a usable capacity of 50TB.
2. A Permanent license is installed on 11/20/2010 to monitor the 50TB usable capacity.
3. Another 100TB usable capacity is added on 11/30/2010 and must be monitored for 10 days.
4. As the usable capacity is beyond the Permanent licensed capacity, P9000 Performance Advisor
enters 60 days grace period on 11/30/2010.
5. 1000TB-Days Meter based Term license are installed on 12/02/2010.
The following fields in the License screen – License Status section display:
• License Capacity: 50TB, +1000TB-Days
• License Status: Installed
• Term (Days): N/A
• End Date: Never
After 1:00 PM, the above fields are updated to display:
• License Capacity: 50TB, +1000TB-Days
• License Status: Installed
• Term (Days): 10
• End Date: 12/11/2010
6. If 90.5TB is monitored on the same day, P9000 Performance Advisor considers 91TB-Days and
again updates the following fields to reflect the latest data, which is as follows:
• License Capacity: 50TB, +909TB-Days
• License Status: Installed
• Term (Days): 9
• End Date: 12/10/2010
Nine days count from 12/02/2010
If 85.5TB is used during the first half of 12/03/2010 and no additional TB-Days are used for
the rest of the day, P9000 Performance Advisor uses 86TB-Days and considers the 0.5 days as
