Licensing

From the Settings page you can manage and import IO licenses, if you have administrator privileges.

Beginning with IO 6.2, licenses are purchased as a base license with add-on Wisdom Pack Licenses. Each Wisdom Pack incorporates an established set of IO components based on site requirements and infrastructure configuration. Licenses purchased prior to IO 6.2 must have been converted by Virtana before updating to 6.2 or later. Therefore, it is strongly recommended that you do not perform the update without the Wisdom Pack licenses ready.

From the Licensing page and from the Integrations page you can access a License Report that shows license usage information, based on license type, such as Enterprise Storage Wisdom Pack, FC32 Wiredata Wisdom Pack, etc. For each license type, the report displays the total number of licenses, as well as the number of used and remaining licenses.

Following is a sample License Report page.
