You can run "license show" from the CLI. 

There's also a spot in the GUI -> Cluster -> Settings -> Licenses 

 

You can also check what shipped with it via my support.netapp.com -> Systems -> Software license 

 

If you don't have it you can work with your Partner or NetApp account team to request a quote or trial. 

 

And yes you can use snapmirror with snaplock, but there are a few things to know.

Do you have a licenses for it applied?  

Here's a TR on Snaplock in general - https://www.netapp.com/pdf.html?item=/media/6158-tr4526pdf.pdf 

 

But there's two types.  Snaplock Enterprise (SLE) and Snaplock Compliance (SLC). 

 

SLE - has a privilege delete option. 

SLC- has no delete, no undo,  once the data is locked there is no deleting it or wiping the drives even.
