Applies to

  • Cloud Volumes ONTAP (CVO)
  • ByNode licensing

Answer

In order to reuse a node-based CVO license, any existing  CVO node using the license needs to first be terminated from BlueXP UI. Then the license will be released and marked as unassigned and can be used again only for a new CVO cluster deployment.

Additional Information

It's not supported to reuse unassigned CVO byNode licenses on existing CVO deployments.
