vC Operations Manager VNX Adapter licence

Hello,

I'm in process of testing vCenter Operations Manager. Got trial version of vCOPS from VMware and I would like to use VNX Storage  adapter to get all possible metrics from VNX5300 to Operations Manger.

Unfortunately, during the configuration of EMC Adapter I received the message: "Test was not successful. Configuration test failed: The selected collector requires a license and the license is empty. “I found case number emc323937. Following this case, I double-checked the
configuration of management IP. VNX Block -> SP A IP.

Do I really need license for Storage adapter?

Any other hint where could be a problem?

Thanks for your help.

Lukas.

    Hi Lukas,

    Yes you do need a license for every array you configure with the EMC Storage Adapter.  Your EMC representative should be able to obtain a trial license for you.

    Thanks.

    you may simply request a trial license via EMC support hotline. That's how I did it.

    That got me only 1 day to get them.
