VNX powerpath

Can someone tell me if the VNX5200 includes any powerpath licenses?

I'm upgrading from two NX4s to two VNX5200s. The NX4 back end AX4 came with licensing for powerpath (Do I need a license key when I install PowerPath?).

I'm getting two active paths and two unlic paths on our sun box.

Any official documentation supporting any claims would be great as I am unable to find anything at all on this!

Thanks

Adam.

Hi Adam,

Yes you need license key.

And please refer to the below mentioned document:

Thanks John that's what I assumed. I just couldn't find anything that specifically said oracle Solaris as the operating system.

Cheers for the help.

Adam.

Thanks Dynamox - That was our fail back plan but seeing as it was configured previously using Powerpath and we have never had any issues with it - its been decided to continue using powerpath. Two licenses have been ordered!
