ImportantSwarm licenses are based on raw usage , and the total footprint on disk. Increasing the number of replicas or EC parity segments increases the footprint, which has the effect of decreasing the net space the license supports. |
Swarm performs the following to evaluate the licensing:
Swarm starts with the default trial license, which is 2 TB per cluster for non-CSN clusters.
Swarm attempts to read the license file from the location specified by
license.url
.
The license file is/caringo/license.txt
on the node's USB flash drive or in the configuration file on the web or FTP server by default.Swarm uses the file specified by
license.url
if valid. The storage capacity is set to 0 if invalid.
...
Note
Swarm uses the last valid license if Swarm fails to read the license specified by license.url
(the file is on a web server that is temporarily unavailable).
