Important

  1. The HySecure cluster uses a single license applied on the Primary HySecure Cluster Manager node.
  2. The Primary Cluster Manager node shares the same license with all other nodes in the cluster.
  3. When the Primary Cluster Manager node is not available, the Secondary Cluster Manager provides the license information to the other nodes in the cluster.

To obtain and activate the license, click on the Get New License button. The license can be activated and applied either online or offline.
