Issue

  • Unable to delete license with following error:

Error: command failed: Package SnapVault with serial number XXXXXXXXXXXX cannot be deleted individually because it is part of the

"Data Protection Bundle" license.

  • The system license clean-up command also can't delete licenses:

::> license clean-up -simulate true -unused true -expired true 
       (system license clean-up) 
  
     The following licenses can be safely deleted: 
  
     Serial number: xxx
     Owner: xxx
     Package                   Reason                                               
------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------- 
     NFS                       License unused by any node in the cluster            
     CIFS                      License unused by any node in the cluster

::> license clean-up -unused true 
       (system license clean-up)
