When you onboard new devices, or the license pool changes, ExtremeCloud IQ aligns your licenses to avoid license violations. This feature automatically updates the license consumption and changes the license types as needed.
When you onboard new devices and there are available licenses in the license pool, the system automatically assigns the available licenses. If you onboard devices and there are no available licenses, a license violation occurs.
If there are insufficient Navigator licenses, ExtremeCloud IQ automatically assigns a higher-tier license if one is available.
When the following license pools grow, ExtremeCloud IQ assigns the licenses to eligible devices:
If a device is part of a stack and there are sufficient licenses available, the system assigns licenses to all devices in the stack. If there are insufficient licenses for all devices in a stack, ExtremeCloud IQ does not automatically assign licenses to any of the devices in the stack.
