Delete a License Key File 

Use this procedure to delete a license key file from an SL500 library. 

You may need to delete a license key file if there is an error in an installed file. Sun will 

issue a new license key file with the same sequence number as the original, and you 

must delete the original license key file before installing the new one. 

Deleting a license key file is an exceptional situation. Be sure it is what you 

really want to do before you begin this procedure. Having extra license key files 

installed on a library does not present any problems (for example, Capacity licenses 

that exceed the physical capacity of the library); the extra licenses are simply not used. 

Deleting a Capacity license key file reduces the licensed capacity of the 

affected library module. This can result in orphaned cartridges and data that could be 

lost. See 

 and 

 for details. 

Deleting a Partitioning license key file deletes the Partitioning feature from 

the library. See 

 for details about the 

effects on the library configuration.
