HP StoreOnce 6500 (88TB) Capacity Expansion guide (BB897-90914, January 2014)

3. If you save the LTU as a file, sftp it into the HP Backup system's repository directory.
• Using Linux
sftp Admin@<IP_Address>
cd repository
put <LTU>.dat
exit
• Using a Windows sftp client
Ensure the File Protocol is set to SFTP, not SCP.
Login as Admin.
Copy <LTU>.dat to repository.
Applying the license
IMPORTANT: When connecting multiple capacity expansion kits to an HP StoreOnce Backup
system, you must add all licenses before expanding the capacity of the HP StoreOnce Backup
system. The storage expansion process will fail if there are any attached expansion kits for which
a license has not been applied.
1. Access the StoreOnce CLI from an SSH terminal using an SSH client application (freely available
on the internet) using any configured IP address for the appliance and provide an Administrator
user name:
ssh <username>@<IP address>
At the next prompt, enter the Administrator's password.
NOTE: The default user name and password are Admin, admin.
2. Check that the LTU is stored within the repository using StoreOnce CLI command: system
show repository.
Look for the <LTU>.dat file.
3. Apply the license using one of the following StoreOnce CLI commands:
• license load <LTU>.dat to load a license that has been saved as a file image. The
file image must exist in the Backup system's repository directory.
• license add <string> to key in the license directly. If you used email or a temporary
file, cut and paste the string exactly as you obtained it from the HP Licensing website.
Entering the LTU manually is not advised.
NOTE: The key is specific to the HP StoreOnce Backup system to which it applies. It cannot
be transferred.
4. To ensure that the license has been applied successfully, run the StoreOnce CLI command:
license show
Completing the RAID expansion
NOTE: All Capacity Expansion Kits that have been licensed are included in the expansion process.
Be sure to apply the licenses for all kits before running the expansion process.
Before the first disk expansion, there is one pool and associated volume for the each disk enclosure
in the couplet. You can view this on the StoreOnce User Interface under:
