Deploy Dell PowerFlex v3.6.x

PowerFlex Licensing

PowerFlex installations are enabled to be fully functional for non-production environments. However, a license is required to use PowerFlex in a production environment.

PowerFlex licenses are purchased by total physical device capacity (in TB). You can activate your licensed capacity over multiple PowerFlex systems—each system with its unique installation ID.

For example, your purchase order may have been for 1000 TB. Your License Authorization Code (LAC) will entitle you to activate all, or part of that. You can activate 500 TB for one PowerFlex system, and leave the rest for another activation, for the same, or for a different system.

To obtain a license for production use, and to receive technical support, open a service ticket with EMC Support at https://support.emc.com.

When you purchase a license entitlement for PowerFlex, an email containing the LAC is sent to you or your purchasing department with a link to the Dell EMC Software Licensing Central website. The LAC is needed to complete the entitlement activation process on the licensing site, which is part of the online support portal located at http://support.emc.com.

If you cannot find the LAC email, you can use the Software Licensing Central website to find your license entitlements.
