Moving DSS LITE to another system after January 31st
Additional notes about DSS LITE User activation and registration!!
Please keep in mind that the registration is keyed to your system.
So if you plan on using the DSS LITE on another system after January 31st this will not work. The activation that you have registered is tied to the original system. So keep this in mind and think of spare parts for the future :).
Professional version of DSS (4TB, 8TB and 16TB) does not apply to this. Professional version of DSS can be easily interchanged with many systems without activation.
Moving DSS LITE to another system after January 31st / VMWare
Hi,
i installed the DSS Liste on USB Stick last days.
After reading all the problems with moving to a new hardware i tried with moving to VMWare Server.
After Moving the DSS Liste from USB Stick to VMWare HDD Image i needed to activate againg, this was no Problem at all, now (still january).
I will test again after 31 January. But if this is not possible with the same S/N DSSLite will be a NOGO.
Maybe open-e Support can give a statement if in case of
a. First Activation is only possible till 31 January (no S/N at all)
b. Reactivation after January will be possible after changing hardware parts and using the same usb stick and S/N
This would give all the users with a valid S/N received in January to change hardware in case of HW Failure.
kind regards
Jürgen
