Napp-It license swap

[Bob T Penguin]

Hello,
Roughly how long does it take to swap a Napp-It license using the link below:

napp-it // webbased ZFS NAS/SAN appliance for OmniOS, OpenIndiana and Solaris : Extensions

napp-it.org - free ZFS NAS SAN Server with user editable web-gui // All In One server = virtualized ready to run ZFS-Server

www.napp-it.org

is it a few hours or many days?

I have a couple of old Omnios machines running 151014 and NappIT 0.9f6, i'll need to exchange my licenses for the new machine based keys and want to plan for how long the migration process will take.

Thanks
Bob

Have you sent them an email to ask directly?
They probably know better then most of us here do (with the exception of @gea o/c)

I was hoping @gea was around and could write an answer, otherwise I'll email them like you suggest.

Regards
Bob

Added the @gea tag for you Bob. It triggers a notification.

You should get a replay within a few seconds.

The license swap is an automated system. If you do not get a reply, check your spam folder. Maybe your enterprise policy allows only mails from the "big" mail providers. In such a case, just send an email at support@napp-it.org or to me at gea@napp.it.org.

@gea thank you for your reply. I've not requested a license swap yet, but now I know it should be very fast I can plan for the next stage of my migration project.

Many thanks
Bob

it took a few minutes for the new key to arrive in my email inbox.

Internet connectivity between Europe and the US seems a little slow at the moment. (maybe due the increased use of videoconferencing and/or streaming/ Netflix etc)

This is why I have added Google as main download option for the ESXi ZFS storageserver templates where a download time from Germany to US was days recently instead of the usual 10 minutes.
