HP StoreOnce B6200 Installation Planning and Preparation Guide (EJ022-90995, November 2013)

5 Preparing for installation
The customer should ensure that a keyboard and monitor are available for use as a management
console during the initial configuration stage.
NOTE: HP does not recommend using a KVM installed in the rack because this will cause problems
when a second couplet is added. In a fully expanded rack there is no space for locating a KVM
within the rack.
The customer should also complete the checklists in the rest of this document and present them to
the HP service engineers when they arrive to install and configure the system.
All other tools are provided by the HP service specialist.

Licenses
Licenses are required for Capacity upgrades and StoreOnce features, replication and StoreOnce

should be unpacked and retained safely, so that the license to use can be redeemed from http://
www.hp.com. All other license entitlements are delivered electronically.
VTL and NAS replication requires a license (per couplet) on the target site, but only if VTL and/or
NAS replication is used on that couplet.
OST/Catalyst devices require a license to be used at both source and target – but do NOT require
an additional replication license as well. Catalyst licensing is per couplet; if a couplet is not using
Catalyst stores – you do not need the license.
StoreOnce software v3.9.0 and later:
• This software also has a Security license that supports Data at Rest Encryption on libraries
and/or Catalyst stores, and Secure Erase on libraries, NAS shares and StoreOnce Catalyst
stores..
• It is possible to apply a free Instant On license (limited to 90 days) for StoreOnce features at
installation, but not for additional capacity
