License downgrade

• When you downgrade from SAN + IP to IP only, the SAN network size changes to none, and
all network size related parameters (such as, asset collection thread pool size and client
and server heap size) are updated.
NOTE
When you downgrade from SAN + IP to IP only, the IP discovery profile, if scheduled, is
disabled during the downgrade.
Downgrading the MPLS product count
You can downgrade from a license with MPLS to a license without MPLS. You can also downgrade
from a license that allows more MPLS devices to a licence that allows fewer MPLS devices.
The following table list the available downgrade paths.
Before you downgrade, if you are downgrading to the IP only license, delete all SAN fabrics (both
monitored and unmonitored).
NOTE
If you combine more than one downgrade option, you must meet the requirements for all downgrade
options.
To downgrade the MPLS product count, complete the following steps.
1. Select Help > License.
The License dialog box displays.
