Initial configuration wizard displays a license error after successfully configuring the cluster
You can add a NetBackup Flex Scale storage license or a NetBackup license while configuring the cluster. The initial configuration wizard displays a license page where you can specify the license details. However, entering the licenses during the cluster configuration itself is not mandatory. In case you skip the licensing page, the cluster is automatically configured with an in-built trial license. After the cluster configuration is successful, the wizard displays the following message:
No valid storage license is provided. A valid license is required to maintain a working cluster. Please add storage licenses after cluster configuration from appliance web GUI.
While this error message is harmless and does not affect the cluster, it is displayed as a reminder that you must add a valid license in order to maintain a working cluster configuration.
You can use the NetBackup Flex Scale infrastructure management UI to add a license. Veritas recommends that you add proper licenses before you start protecting production workloads with your appliance.
