Which statements are true of licensing in clustered ONTAP 8.2? (choose all that apply)
The correct answer is B. Licenses are node-locked D. Length of license is 28 characters E. HA functionality doesn't require a license. In clustered ONTAP 8.2, licenses are tied to specific nodes and are 28 characters in length, while core HA functionality is inherently included and does not demand a separate license.

Why each option
In clustered ONTAP 8.2, licenses are tied to specific nodes and are 28 characters in length, while core HA functionality is inherently included and does not demand a separate license.
While a base license is required, the specific licensing model for 'base' and how it relates to node count can vary by feature, making this statement less precisely true than others, and it's not the primary correct answer for general licensing.
NetApp ONTAP 8.2 licenses are node-locked, meaning each license key is generated for and assigned to a particular node's system ID within the cluster.
14 characters is an incorrect length for ONTAP 8.2 license keys; the correct length is 28 characters.
The standard length for license keys in clustered ONTAP 8.2 for various features and capabilities is 28 characters.
High Availability (HA) functionality is a fundamental design principle and a core feature of ONTAP clusters, therefore it is included by default as part of the base system and does not require an additional, separate license key.
HA functionality is a fundamental and built-in aspect of ONTAP clusters for ensuring data availability and is not something that requires a separate, purchasable license.
