Coming back to the initial question with some answers and no solutionI have bought a licence for the 3-rd cam which worked well on DS112 box.The same licence worked also on baremetal Xpenology 6.02.Now I have gone over to ESXi based environment and the licence does not activate anymore, giving the 'connection failed' errorI have tried SN and MAC pair generated by the excel file available in the net.I have also tried the original MAC and SN from the DS112, with still the connection failed message at activation the licence.Might be that there are some detection mechanisms for non genuine HW. Then we circumvent the protection employed by Synology to make it work (and also we add some extra stuff (kernel drivers for support, mostly).So yes, we are infringing the license of DSM, because it says it can only be used on Synology hardware (hardware it is sold on). IMO, since license is given to a particual hardware, which is identified by pair of serial with mac, by using serial and mac on xpenology and using survillance licence you will violate license agrements. But it is just my opinion and you can ask synology support about that.Let say synology will find a way to identify that you have installed extra license on xpenology, and will revoke all extra licenses with no refund? What will you do? If I already own a synology NAS or buy a cheap second hand one could I use its SN and MAC on my xpenology build to install a legitimately purchased license?Sure, you can, but first read license agrements.
