Licensing and download

IBM Spectrum Accelerate is a downloadable software product that must be licensed per storage capacity.

The licensed storage capacity can be used by several Spectrum Accelerate deployments (several Spectrum Accelerate storage systems) as long as the total storage capacity of all deployments does not exceed the licensed storage capacity.

Using the product is allowed for the licensed capacity. Consult with an authorized IBM representative to obtain information about the required IBM Spectrum Accelerate licensing for your organization.
The license is associated with your IBM customer number (ICN). Contact IBM to obtain your ICN. After your Spectrum Accelerate is deployed, you can retrieve your ICN at any time as described in Retrieving your IBM Customer Number (ICN).
