License
Review details and usage for your DryvIQ Platform license.
Table of Contents
Overview
The License page allows you to review your license details. It provides information to help you understand how your license usage is calculated and how migration jobs and content scans affect it.
Usage Overview
This section displays what’s currently available for your license. In addition to identifying the number of activations used and the number of nodes online, this section helps you track how much of your license byte limit has been used. Migration jobs will run provided the byte limit has not been reached. If a job is running and the byte limit is reached during that job run, the job will finish the current run. If a job attempts to start once the byte limit has been reached, the job will fail with a license warning.
License Details
This section identifies the version of DryvIQ you are running and your license's expiration date. Once a license expires, the application functions are no longer available. If you attempt to use a license that has reached its activation limit, it will not activate, and a warning message will display that the license cannot be used. You will need to contact DryvIQ Customer Support for assistance.
Data Migrated
This section pertains to the licensing for your migrations. It identifies the total byte limit for the license, how much of the limit has been used, and how much remains. The Volume used value is calculated based on the amount of data DryvIQ migrated.
- First Run (New Jobs): The “Volume used” increments by the size of the items migrated.
- Delta Job Runs, Job Resets, Duplicated Jobs, and Recreated Job: The “Volume used” increments by the size of the new items migrated as part of that job run. For edited items, the increment will be the full size of the changed item(s) and NOT the difference in size due to the changes.
- Deleted Jobs: If a job is deleted, the “Volume used” remains unchanged and does not decrement.
- Simulation Jobs: Simulation jobs do not count towards the “Volume used” until simulation is disabled, and the job runs as a standard job (in normal mode).
- Versions: When a job runs with versioning enabled, the “Volume used” increases for each version of a file managed by that job. This is important to understand since the job overview page only displays the item as a single item and doesn’t reflect its versions. If the job is set to only preserve the latest version, only the current version counts towards the “Volume used” since DryvIQ only moves the current version of the file. If changes are made to the file, the latest version will be migrated due to the change and count towards the “Volume used.”
- Permissions: If a file's permissions change but the file itself is not updated, DryvIQ doesn’t transfer the file; therefore, it isn’t included in the “Volume used.”
Data Under Management
This section pertains to content scan licensing. It identifies the total byte limit for the license, how much of the limit has been used, and how much remains. The Volume used value is calculated based on the amount of data scanned.
- First Scan: The “Volume used” increments by the size of the data that is scanned,
- Subsequent scans: For subsequent scans, the “Volume used” increments by the size of the new items tracked or by the size of items that need to be scanned again due to changes. “Volume used” increments by the full size of the changed item and NOT the difference in size due to the change.
Note that duplicating data sources can impact the “Volume used.” If you assign a single data source to multiple scans, DryvIQ will only count a file in that location once. However, if you create multiple data sources using the same location, DryvIQ will count the content again. For example,
- If a file is scanned by one content scan that uses a unique data source, the file is counted once.
- If a file is scanned by two content scans that use the same data source, the file is counted once.
- If a file is scanned by two content scans that use two separate data sources using the same location, the file is counted twice.
