616 Implementing the IBM Storwize V7000 with IBM Spectrum Virtualize V8.2.1
Problems with automatic license activation
If connections problems occur with the automatic license activation procedure, the system 
times out after 3 minutes with an error. 
Check whether the personal computer that is used to connect to the Storwize V7000 GUI and 
activate the license can access the internet. If you cannot complete the automatic activation 
procedure, use the manual activation procedure that is described in 12.3.5, “Activate the 
license manually” on page 617. 
Although authorization codes and encryption license keys use the same format (four groups 
of four hexadecimal digits), you can only use each of them in the appropriate activation 
process. If you use a license key when the system expects an authorization code, the system 
displays an error message, as shown in Figure 12-16.
