Licensing - Basic License Information

Licenses are based on the number of nodes configured in CC-SG.

Your purchase of a physical or virtual appliance includes a license to use a specific number of nodes. This "base license" enables CC-SG functionality and includes licensing for up to the set number of nodes. If you need more nodes, you will also purchase an Add-On license for additional nodes. If you want to use the WS-API feature, you must also purchase an Add-On license for WS-API access.

License files for physical appliances and for virtual appliances are associated with a specific CC-SG unit's or virtual CC-SG virtual machine's Host ID.

This means that license files are not transferable.

• If you are a new customer with a physical appliance, you will download your license files from the Raritan Licensing Page website. See Licensing - New Customers - Physical Appliance.
• If you are an existing pre-5.0 customer, you do not need to download license files. When a pre-5.0 CC-SG unit is upgraded to 5.0 or higher, the licenses are converted to the new format. A new base license and any applicable Add-On licenses are created and automatically installed and checked out as needed to accommodate your current configuration. See Licensing - Existing Customers
