High Availability overview 3 Universal time-based licensing After v6.3.0, Web Tools supports universal time-based licensing. Each universal key is for a single feature, and can be used on any product that supports the feature, for a defined trial period. At the end of the trial period, the feature gets disabled. You can extend the universal key license. For time-based licenses, the Expiry Date displays in the License Administration table. The following features are supported for universal time-based license: • Fabric • Extended Fabric • Fabric Watch • Performance Monitor • Trunking • High-Performance Extension over FCIP/FC • Advanced Extension • Advanced FICON Acceleration • FICON Management Server (CUP) • Enhanced Group Management (EGM) • 10GbE • Integrated Routing • Adaptive Networking • Server Application Optimization • Extended Inter Chassis Link (EICL) license High Availability overview High-Availability (HA) features provide maximum reliability and nondisruptive replacement of key hardware and software modules. High Availability is available only on the Brocade DCX, DCX-4S, DCX 8510-4 and DCX 8510-8 platforms. Refer to the Fabric OS Administrator's Guide for additional information about High Availability. The High Availability window, as shown in Figure 10, displays information about the status of the HA feature on each control processor (CP), and enables you to perform CP failover. The background color of the HA button indicates the overall status of high availability on the switch. The colors and their meanings are: • Green-Healthy: HA Status is HA enabled, Heartbeat Up, HA State synchronized. • Yellow-Disruptive mode: HA Status is HA enabled, Heartbeat Up, HA State not in sync. • Red-HA is unavailable: HA Status is Non-Redundant.
