3 Applying the license and completing the RAID expansion
Applying the LTU
To increase the capacity of your HP D2D Backup System with the Capacity Upgrade Kit you must
first obtain a permanent License To Use (LTU) from the HP Licensing website and then use the HP
D2D’s Web Management Interface to apply the LTU, activate the additional capacity and complete
the licensing process. Go to the HP Licensing website at http://www.webware.hp.com and follow
the instructions to obtain the LTU. You will also find instructions in the License pack.
IMPORTANT: When connecting multiple upgrade kits to an HP D2D4300 Series appliance, add
all licenses before expanding the capacity of the HP D2D. This ensures that the expansion process
occurs once only and reduces the amount of time that the system is unavailable for backup and
restore.
To apply the LTU(s):
1. Log on to the Web Management Interface and select the Licenses web page from
Administration.
2. If you have saved the LTU as a .DAT file, click Upload license file and use the Browse option
to locate the file. Click Upload.
If you used email or a temporary file, cut and paste the string exactly as you obtained it from
the HP Licensing website and click Enter LTU string. It is not advised to try and key in the LTU
manually.
3. The second shelf is now licensed and enabled, but the RAID has not yet been expanded.
4. HP D2D4300 Series only: If you have connected multiple shelves, repeat this process to add
all licenses.
