About Access Appliance product licensing
You need to procure a license to use the Access Appliance software.
The Veritas Access software on the appliance includes a built-in evaluation license that activates once you complete the appliance initial configuration. This license is a trialware which can be used for 60 days. You have to obtain a perpetual license to use the Access software on the appliance after you complete the initial configuration. To comply with the terms of the End User License Agreement, you have 60 days to obtain a valid perpetual license key. The administrator and company representatives must ensure that the appliance is entitled to the license level for the products installed. Veritas reserves the right to ensure entitlement and compliance through auditing.
Starting with Access Appliance version 7.4.2, the licensing model has changed. The Access Appliance supports the per-TB licensing model with a perpetual license. If you have a valid per-core or a per-TB-core license from a prior release, you can continue to use the license after you upgrade the appliance. However, Veritas recommends that you switch to the per-TB licensing model after you upgrade to Access Appliance version 7.4.3.
