IMPORTANT: You must complete a Discovery Data Collection for the EVA arrays before importing
the license and starting the collectors. After importing the license, you can start the data collectors
from the Performance Data Collection page (Optimize > Storage Essentials > Performance Data
Collection). Although EVA arrays are displayed after you run discovery (Options > Discovery), you
must run a Discovery Data Collection for the collectors to run properly.
As part of the license setup, a license page similar to the following displays the used and maximum
numbers of managed arrays.
If your license includes the Array Performance Pack capability, the current usage summary will
report how many arrays can have this capability applied.
