Term (Days) indicates the total number of days when the installed
90TB-Days can be used. In this case, as the usable capacity is within the
Permanent licensed capacity limit, the 90TB-Days are dormant and the
Term (Days) are not shown.
Term (Days)
Displays the status as Installed.
License Status
Displays Never.
This is because, the Permanent license which is for an unlimited duration
is currently active.
End Date
Consider that the usable capacity exceeds the 50TB Permanent licensed capacity by 10TB in the first
half of 12/03/2010. As a result, the 90TB-Days are activated and P9000 Application Performance
Extender uses 10TB-Days, and updates the following fields after 1:00 PM on the same day.
On 12/03/2010:

Displays 50TB, +80TB-Days
This is because, 10TB-Days are used on 12/03/2010 to monitor the
additional 10TB usable capacity on that day. It also indicates that
+80TB-Days remain that can be used.
License Capacity
Displays 8.
Eight days is the remaining duration when the +80TB-Days can be used.
Term (Days)
Displays the status as Installed.
License Status
Displays 12/10/2010.
Calculated as eight days starting from 12/03/2010.
End Date
Consider that the usable capacity exceeds the 50TB Permanent licensed capacity by 10TB in the
second half of 12/03/2010. As a result, P9000 Application Performance Extender updates the
above listed fields after 1:00 PM only on the next day (12/04/2010), though the 10TB-Days are
already used from the 90TB-Days on 12/03/2010.
After the installed TB-Days are completely used and one of the following actions is not completed,
P9000 Application Performance Extender enters 60 days grace period for that particular P9500 disk
array:
•
A Permanent or appropriate TB-Days of Meter based Term license installed to control the additional
usable capacity.
•
The additional usable capacity reduced to match the Permanent licensed capacity.
In addition, P9000 Application Performance Extender reduces the installed TB-Days every day after
1:00 PM till one of the above-mentioned actions is performed. The reduction (negative count) of
TB-Days is proportional to the additional usable capacity that needs to be controlled. After 60 days,
a capacity violation is reported and P9000 Application Performance Extender stops controlling that
disk array.
