SocialAccess provides a 30-day trial period. If you do not register the appliance within 30 days after installation, the appliance stops working. The bomb icon on the Admin page displays how many days are left in the trial period.
For the purpose of meeting licensing requirements, when you register a single appliance, the cluster as a whole is considered to be registered. However, in order to use the Novell Customer Center (NCC) update channel to download and install software updates, you must register each node in the cluster separately. The bomb icon remains on the Admin page if there are nodes in the cluster that have not yet been registered for channel updates. For more information about the update channel, see Section 7.3, Updating the Appliance.
To register your appliance:
Log in to your Customer Center at http://www.novell.com/center.
The Customer Center is for NetIQ, Novell, and SUSE customers.
Under My Products, select SocialAccess.
Select License Key, then save the license key to a location where you can access it from your SocialAccess appliance.
Log on to your SocialAccess appliance and access the Admin page.
Click the appliance, then click Register appliance.
Specify the email address you used when you registered with the Customer Center.
Specify the license key you downloaded from the Customer Center.
Click Register.
Repeat Step 5 through Step 8 for each appliance in the cluster.
When you have successfully registered all nodes in the cluster, the bomb icon disappears.
