Requesting a Software License in Email
To obtain either a permanent or evaluation software license, contact your sales account manager or authorized
reseller. The license details are provided via email with an attached text file. Use the text file to cut and paste the
licensing information into the WebUI or at the command line.
NOTE: Ensure that you have provided your sales person with a valid email address.
The email also includes:
l The orderable part number for the license
l A description of the software module type and Dell controller for which it is valid
l A unique, 32-character alphanumerical string used to access the license management website and which, in
conjunction with the serial number of your controller, generates a unique software license key
Locating the System Serial Number
Each controller has a unique serial number located at the rear of the controller chassis. The W-6000M3 has the serial
number on the device itself.
You can also find the serial numbers by navigating to the Controller > Inventory page on the WebUI or by
executing the show inventory command from the CLI.
NOTE: To physically inspect the system serial number on a W-6000M3, you need to remove the device from the controller chassis,
which may result in network down time.
