This license, allows the system to operate as a StorNext LAN Gateway that provides StorNext LAN client access to StorNext File Systems (snfs), once the license is installed and gateway configuration on the system is done.
The Gateway license allows adding LAN-based clients to the StorNext configuration without having to purchase additional "per-seat" LAN client licenses. This license allows as many LAN client connections as can be accommodated by the throughput of the Gateway system itself. If your StorNext environment has previously been set up with DLC clients, you will be limited to the existing client DLC license count until you disable the DLC clients and install gateway clients on those systems.
The Licenses Page in the StorNext GUI
The two parts of the Gateway license displayed in the StorNext GUI of the StorNext system monitoring the Gateways:
Gateway Licensed MDC - This is the Gateway license as shown on the license page of the StorNext GUI on supported systems. The Gateway license used on those systems is identical to the license on Xcellis Workflow Extender and the G300, with the same features and restrictions. The license is shown as active (green indicator) only when the Gateway functionality has been enabled on the host system.
Gateway Client - All installed Gateway LAN clients used in conjunction with the Gateway license are displayed as "Gateway client" in the Gateway Metrics report in the StorNext GUI of the system monitoring the Gateway.
Note: The StorNext GUI on appliances operating as StorNext MDCs configured to monitor the gateway, provides a Gateway metrics report which contains statistics on gateway usage.
Note: The M662 may only operate as a StorNext LAN Gateway when not connected to a Lattus system.
Note: There is a maximum of one StorNext LAN Gateway License supported per StorNext cluster that contains one or more Xcellis Workflow Director Gen 3 systems.
