Applying a License from the License Page in the Command Center

After you purchase a license, you must apply the license to the CommServe server. Licenses validate the products and features that you use in the Commvault environment.

For new installations of the CommServe server, a license is sent to you in an email, and you must save the license file to the CommServe server. You can then apply the license to the CommServe server.

Before You Begin

• Obtain a new license from your software provider. To request a new license, on the Commvault Maintenance Advantage Customer Support portal, go to Product Registration & License Management. In this form, you must include your CommCell ID, Serial Number, and Registration Code. You can copy this information from the License page. For instructions, see Viewing and Copying CommCell Product Information.

Procedure

   The License page appears

2. Apply the license by specifying the location where you saved a license file:

   • To apply a license to the CommServe server, in the License details section, click Update license, select the location of the license file, and then click Apply.
