Page: Frequently asked questions about Cloud Data Sense

can we please add another question about what will happen when we reach the license limit with cloud data sense in the FAQ? for ex: if a custy has 50TB BYOL and they reach the limit what happens? i know we pop a warning, but would like to know if they will be switched to Paygo if they scan beyond 50TB....

Hi Sabari, Good point. The customer will be switched to PAYGO when their BYOL expires. I noticed in our Backup docs we have a thorough explanation of what happens in the section BYOL license considerations. How about if I adopt some of this content in the Data Sense licensing topic?

Thanks, Tom

Hi Tom,

thanks for a quick revert. My question is a situation wherein their BYOL is still valid, however they reached the license limit for scan. do we allow them to scan beyond the BYOL? and charge em PAYGO for those additional capacity scans?

to your point, absolutely yes, it is good to document the details on PAYGO switch when BYOL expires. so thanks for the additional detail and help. :)

Hi Sabari, Sorry for the delay. I have added a section for BYOL license consideration for Data Sense. Let me know if this helps with what you were looking for.

Thanks again for bringing this to our attention.

Thanks, Tom

Hi Tom,

thanks for getting back, my question is, what happens when BYOL license is still active however they have reached the license limit in size. Will we continue to scan or we stop scanning?

netapp-tonacki commented 2 years ago

Hi Sabari, I see I missed part of your question. Whether you hit the limit by reaching the expiration date, or by reaching the max amount of data to scan, both are considered "license expired". I think it stops scanning, but I am double-checking with the team and I will let you know - and update the doc.

Our new doc site went live yesterday, so you'll see updates in the new page for Cloud Data Sense from now on.

Thanks, Tom

Hi Sabari, I got the official word; and it is different than what I originally thought. Thanks again for bringing this up. I updated the docs here. Briefly:

Thanks, Tom
