ONTAP 9 Manuals ( CA08871-402 )

Download license files from Support Site

If your system is running ONTAP 9.10.1 or later, you can upgrade the bundle license files on existing systems by downloading the license file for ONTAP One or ONTAP Core from the Support Site.

The SnapMirror cloud and SnapMirror S3 licenses are not included with ONTAP One. They are part of the ONTAP One Compatibility bundle, which you can get for free if you have ONTAP One and request separately.
Steps
