Change RPA License
Hi,
We have acquired recently 2 RPA Gen5 servers to add them to our existing clusters, we had a temporary EX license from EMC to intergate the cluster and redistribute CG, now that we have finished, I need to change the temp EX license with a permanent SE one, would this impact existing CGs ?
For the moment, the new cluster can see other clusters, using FC for some and Ethernet for others, how would this impact the clsuters ?
I appreciate your help.

You meant a permanent EX license, right?
RP/SE only supports a two cluster system and you can't apply an SE license to a non-RP/SE system, i.e. an RP system.

No, I mean a permanet SE License, as we now have a temp EX license on the newest cluster (this is what we want to change) and permanent EX licenses on the other clusters.

Based on the last sentence of your initial question, presumably you've deployed a new cluster using the Gen5 RPA's that you acquired and have connected the cluster to the existing system. If the existing clusters where deployed as full RP and EX licensing applied, you cannot 1) add an RP/SE cluster to an RP system, 2) mix licensing, i.e. SE and EX, 3) add a licensed system to an existing licensed system.
