PowerStore License Manual Installation Flow Manually installing a license requires two steps. In the example, the trial license displays an expiration date 30 days after the PowerStore has been initialized. To install a new license, select Licensing > INSTALL LICENSE. 1. Export the PowerStore Activation file to the local machine. Upload the Activation file to Software Licensing Central and retrieve the license file. Account access is part of the purchase of the PowerStore system. 2. Upload the license file to activate the PowerStore license. Answer: A,D, Page135 of Powerstore 3.0 PS implementation

C. Download the activation file from PowerStore Manager: This step allows you to generate an activation file within the PowerStore Manager itself, eliminating the need for an internet connection. Explanation: When working with PowerStore, administrators can generate an activation file directly through the PowerStore Manager interface. This file can then be used to activate licenses on the appliance without needing an internet connection. Additional Context: PowerStore Manager is designed to facilitate the management of the PowerStore appliance, including license management, making it easier for administrators to handle licensing even in environments without direct internet access. This process is part of ensuring compliance with licensing requirements while maintaining operational flexibility.

Correct Answers: C. Download the activation file from PowerStore Manager: This step allows you to generate an activation file within the PowerStore Manager itself, eliminating the need for an internet connection. D. Upload the activation file to the PowerStore appliance: Once you have the activation file downloaded, you can upload it to the PowerStore appliance for license activation.   Incorrect Answers: A. Upload the activation file to https://licensing.emc.com/#/activationByConfig: This website requires an internet connection to access the Dell EMC licensing portal. B. Download the license file from https://license.emc.com/#/activationByConfig: Similar to option A, downloading the license file from this website also requires internet access.

"No" internet.... Export activation file and Upload License

B. Download the license file from https://license.emc.com/#/activationByConfig Upload the activation file to the PowerStore appliance

I'll leave only AC. There is no such site like license.emc.com, only licensing.emc.com. And you need to upload licensing file onto powerstore, not activation file.

For me ABC are correct :) What is uploaded to appliance is license file, not activation file, so this answer must be wrong.
