Licensing of Active Passive Software

Krycek
Hi,

I'm trying to figure out how to set up licensing for an active passive solution.

I have two bare Servers on which I want to intall the UTM9 Software.

One of the boxes is just for failure purposes and in case the first one breaks it should take over operations.

To my knowledge I only Need one Software license for that. But how do I set up the second box without a license at all!?

I haven't bought a licensee yet, just trying to figure out the best and cheapest solution for this.

Thanks,
Chris

    You are correct; to have a HA pair in Active/Passive mode, only 1 set of subscription licenses are required.  To get your other software box up ... when you do a clean install on the passive unit, you automatically have a grace period of 30 days, no license install needed.  Just add it to the HA master and voila you have your HA pair configured.  No further tinkering with licensing needed.
