on a certain amount of capacity. The basic unit of software license capacity is 1 TB. Most operations
use license capacity. For example, configuring a back-end LU as a member of a storage pool deducts
the BELU's disk capacity from your volume management licensed capacity. The following license types
are available:
Table 1 VSM license types
DescriptionLicense type
Enables you to perform the following operations within one domain:
• Migrate used LUNs from SVSP-approved SAN storage systems to bring them
under VSM management.
• Create storage pools and stripes.
• Use the migrate service.
• Use the sync mirror service (one source and one copy).
Volume Manager
Allows you to oversubscribe to the current Volume Manager license limit for 90
days for the amount added. For example, if you add 10 TB to the VM license,
then for 90 days you can use 20 TB of capacity (10 TB at the source and 10 TB
at the destination).
NOTE:
No physical license is installed.
Migration
Enables you to perform the following operations within one domain in addition
to the basic license:
• Create PiTs and snapshots of virtual disks within the local domain.
• Use snapclones to copy virtual disks and snapshots within the local domain.
Business Copy (BC)
Enables thin provisioning support.
Thin Provisioning (TP)
Enables you to perform the following operations between domains in addition to
the basic license:
• Supports remote snapclones between two domains.
• Supports remote async mirrors between a single source domain and up to three
remote domains.
Continuous Access (CA)
NOTE:
BC is intra-domain, while CA is domain-to-domain.
