Licenses

Adding an expansion shelf enclosure requires that you order a license for each enclosure from a Dell Account

representative at the time that you order the DR Series system. You can also order this at a later date when you want to

add additional external storage to your base DR Series system. To obtain the license, you can download it from the

support.dell.com/ website using your service tag or use an email link from your Dell Account representative.

If you already have a Dell MD1200 storage array, the order process supports licensing for existing hardware that you

want to add to a base DR Series system. Each license supports one expansion shelf enclosure, and the system supports

up to two enclosures using the DR Series system service tag. Because the licenses are tied to the system service tag, if

the internal drives are moved to another system chassis, this would require a new license. For more information about

the expansion shelf enclosures, see “DR Series Expansion Shelf” in DR Series System and Data Operations.

注: The 300 Gigabyte (GB) drive capacity (2.7 TB) version of the DR Series system does not support the addition of

expansion shelf enclosures to add external storage to the base system.
