A License PackageIncludes the licenses that are required for installing Agents on your Source machines. is defined by the following criteria:
A License PackageIncludes the licenses that are required for installing Agents on your Source machines. can be associated with one or more ProjectsA Project is the basic organizational unit for running a CloudEndure solution..
Note: Accounts registered through the AWS Marketplace are automatically assigned licenses.
Note: After receiving your License Package and signing into the CloudEndure User Console, you can see the details of your licenses at the Project level on the following pages:
When a License PackageIncludes the licenses that are required for installing Agents on your Source machines. expires, data replication will continue indefinitely for any SourceThe location of the Source machine; Currently either a specific Region or Other Infrastructure. machines that has active data replication, but you will not be able to launch TargetThe location where the Replication Server will be located and where Target machines will be created (as a result of Test, Cutover or Recovery). machines or install the CloudEndure AgentThe Agent is a software program that is installed on machines in the Source location that need to be migrated or replicated to the Target location. on new machines.
Note: If you pause Data Replication on a machine for which the license has expired, you will not be able to resume it.
Note: If you wish to stop Data Replication after license expiration, you can always do so by either:
1. Navigating to the Machines tab, selecting Machine Actions, and selecting the Stop Data Replication option to fully stop replication.
2. Navigating to the Machines tab, selecting Machine Actions, and selecting the Remove X Machines from Console option to uninstall the CloudEndure Agent and fully stop replication.
3. Uninstall the CloudEndure Agent manually from the Source machine.
When using a MigrationThe CloudEndure solution that allows you to move data, applications, and other business elements from an onsite network or a cloud environment to another physical location or cloud environment. solution, in addition to the expiration date of the License PackageIncludes the licenses that are required for installing Agents on your Source machines., the individual licenses also have individual expiration dates.
This expiration date refers to the date of AgentThe Agent is a software program that is installed on machines in the Source location that need to be migrated or replicated to the Target location. installation on the SourceThe location of the Source machine; Currently either a specific Region or Other Infrastructure. machines.
When an individual license date expires, you can no longer launch a Target machineThe Machine created during Test, Cutover or Recovery. for the specific Source machineThe computer, physical or virtual machine that needs to be protected by replication (Disaster Recovery) or migrated (Migration) The CloudEndure Agent is installed on the Source machine. that was associated with the license.
Important! The expiration date of MigrationThe CloudEndure solution that allows you to move data, applications, and other business elements from an onsite network or a cloud environment to another physical location or cloud environment. licenses is 90 days. During this time frame, you need to install the AgentsThe Agent is a software program that is installed on machines in the Source location that need to be migrated or replicated to the Target location. on your SourceThe location of the Source machine; Currently either a specific Region or Other Infrastructure. machines, and perform a TestThe same for Migration and Disaster Recovery. A process that is initiated manually. Launches Target machines on the Target location, and marks the tested machines on the Console as ready for Live Migration/Disaster Recovery. It is recommended to initiate a Test after the initial replication is completed. When a Test is initiated, an updated snapshot is created on the Staging Aaea. From this snapshot, a disk is created. or a CutoverThe process of transitioning from one system to a replacement system. to migrate the machines to the TargetThe location where the Replication Server will be located and where Target machines will be created (as a result of Test, Cutover or Recovery). infrastructure.
In a MigrationThe CloudEndure solution that allows you to move data, applications, and other business elements from an onsite network or a cloud environment to another physical location or cloud environment. solution, once an AgentThe Agent is a software program that is installed on machines in the Source location that need to be migrated or replicated to the Target location. is installed on a Source machineThe computer, physical or virtual machine that needs to be protected by replication (Disaster Recovery) or migrated (Migration) The CloudEndure Agent is installed on the Source machine., a license is consumed and cannot be re-used, even if the AgentThe Agent is a software program that is installed on machines in the Source location that need to be migrated or replicated to the Target location. is uninstalled from the machineA physical or virtual computer..
In a Disaster RecoveryThe CloudEndure solution that enables the recovery or continuation of vital technology infrastructure and systems in case of a crippling event. solution, individual licenses are not tied to individual machines. If you uninstall an AgentThe Agent is a software program that is installed on machines in the Source location that need to be migrated or replicated to the Target location. from a machineA physical or virtual computer., you can re-use its license for another machineA physical or virtual computer.. In this case, the Continuous Data ReplicationThe process of copying all data blocks from selected disks on a Source Machine to Staging Disks. in the first machineA physical or virtual computer. will stop, all the resources used for the replication of that machineA physical or virtual computer. will automatically be deleted, and you will not be able to launch any new TargetThe location where the Replication Server will be located and where Target machines will be created (as a result of Test, Cutover or Recovery). machines for it.

A rescan may occur after a reboot of the Source machineThe computer, physical or virtual machine that needs to be protected by replication (Disaster Recovery) or migrated (Migration) The CloudEndure Agent is installed on the Source machine.. The rescan time will vary depending on the size of the SourceThe location of the Source machine; Currently either a specific Region or Other Infrastructure. disks. The time depends on the performance of the disks (linear read), target disksThe disks attached to the Target machines. (linear read), and the rate of write operations on the Source machineThe computer, physical or virtual machine that needs to be protected by replication (Disaster Recovery) or migrated (Migration) The CloudEndure Agent is installed on the Source machine. (which are sent in parallel with the re-scan.) The re-scan is functioning normally as long as its moving forward and is not "stuck".
Note: A rescan usually only occurs after a graceful reboot in a Linux environment. During the rescan, all contents of the disk will be read to ensure that no changes were made to the disk. During the read time, RPO and Lag experienced may grow - the larger the disk, the larger the RPO and Lag.
