Reviewing the license requirements

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 7.4.2.

For more information about the Access Appliance license, see the Veritas Access Appliance Initial Configuration and Administration Guide.
