Hi,

 

I used to have one cluster. NetappC1

2 newer nodes and 2 older ones in the cluster.

 

I removed the 2 older nodes from NetappC1

And created a new cluster NetappC2 with the older nodes.

 

So now i have 2 clusters (NetappC1 and NetappC2), NetappC1 with the 2 newer nodes and NetappC2 with the 2 older nodes.

 

Problem is now that I dont have the licenses for NetappC2,.

The Nodes are decommissioned and not in autosupport. So i cant find them.

 

Is there a way to extract the licenses from NetappC1?

I can see that there are still licenses on NetappC1 committed to the two nodes that are not in the cluster anymore.

::> system license show -serial-number 1-81-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx1   

::> system license show -serial-number 1-81-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx2

Showing NFS, CIFS,iSCSI,FCP 

But how do i move the licens to NetappC2?

There's not really a way to "extract them".     I'm also pretty sure those are node/serial locked as well.    If you're head swapping,  the new serials should be included with the order.
