  • ONTAP Select
  • ONTAP Select Deployment
  • ONTAP Capacity Pool (Expired License)

Issue

  • After installing a new NLF due to the expiration of the old license, the new NLF Capacity reports (10 TB) capacity but is not assigned to the appropriate node. 
  • The example below shows an expired Capacity Pools license (top row) and a separate Capacity Pools license (bottom row) that cannot be used to "renew" the expired license.  In this configuration, the user would need to migrate all data from the expired node(s) to the valid license node(s) (see Disruptive Solution).
