If you already protected a disk, the application window appears (Figure 4-7).
Figure 4-7: DiskSafe Express Application
The “Status” page displays the name of the disk that you protected and related information,
such as the size of the disk, the name of the storage system where the backup resides, the
number used to identify the backup disk on the storage system (Backup disk ID), the current
status, information about any ongoing activity, and the date and time of the last backup and next
scheduled backup If any.
Note: If your license is not currently activated, a message will appear advising
you of this. You must activate your license within 30 days of installing DiskSafe
Express. After that time, you will no longer be able to perform backups or
recoveries. For more information, refer to Section 4.2.6.
4.2.5 Activating Your License Key
When you install DiskSafe Express and restart your computer, you will be prompted to license
the product. If your computer has an Internet connection, the license is activated automatically.
However, if your Internet connection was temporarily down or if your computer has no Internet
connection, your license will not be activated. You must activate your license within 30 days of
installing DiskSafe Express; otherwise you will not be able to perform a backup or recovery after
that time.
If your Internet connection was temporarily down, your license will be activated automatically the
next time you run DiskSafe Express with a restored Internet connection.
However, if your computer has no Internet connection, you must perform offline activation (as
described in the next section).
Note: The license activation is tied to your computer’s hardware. Once you have
activated a particular license, if your computer hardware changes, or if you install
DiskSafe Express on a different computer using the same key code, an error
message will appear. You must export your current license data (Action Æ
License Æ Offline Activation Æ Export License Data) and e-mail the license file to
“[email protected]”, indicating that your hardware has changed. When
