Licensing for unmanaged interconnects
You assign licenses to unmanaged interconnects by specifying the licensing intent for the interconnect from the Interconnect Bay Licensing.
dialog underYou can also assign licenses to unmanaged interconnects using HPE OneView REST APIs.
If you remove an interconnect and then re-insert the same model, a license is automatically re-applied.
If you remove an interconnect and insert a different model, the license assigned to the bay is not automatically re-applied.
When you insert an unmanaged interconnect and the bay has no licensing intent (license setting specified in the logical enclosure), the intent defaults to
No
.When you physically remove an unmanaged interconnect, the license is released back to the license pool.
