Adding licenses
If your storage system software was installed at the factory, System Manager automatically adds the software to its list of licenses. If the software was not installed at the factory, you can add the software license from the Add License dialog box.
Before you begin 
The software license code for the specific Data ONTAP service must be available.
About this task 
The same system software, such as SyncMirror, CIFS, or NFS, must be licensed and enabled on both nodes of an HA configuration.
Note: If a takeover occurs, the takeover node can provide only the functionality for the licenses installed on it. If the takeover node does not have a license that was used by the partner node to serve data, your HA configuration loses the functionality after a takeover.
The disk sanitization license can be added only from the command-line interface.
Steps 
1.
From the Home tab, double-click the appropriate storage system.
2.
In the navigation pane, click Configuration > System Tools > Licenses.
3.
Click Add.
4.
In the Add License dialog box, enter the software license code, and click Add.
If you are adding a license to an HA configuration, System Manager verifies the HA configurations. If the service is not licensed on the partner node, System Manager prompts you to add the license on the partner node.
5.
Click Refresh.
6.
Verify that the license you added is included in the list of licences in the Licenses window.
