Flash Module to the mSATA slot until it cannot go any further.

6. Insert and fasten screws in place as indicated.

7. Close the case cover and fasten the screws. Connect the power adaptor and cables to

the NAS .

8. To ch eck tha t the mSATA Flash Module is recognized by the NA S, power up the NAS

Chapter 8. Hot-swap Hard Drives

The QNAP NAS is compatible with 2 .5 -inch/3.5-inch SATA hard dr ive s fro m maj o r hard

drive brands. F o r t he up d a t ed ha r d d ri v e co m patib ility l is t, ple ase

Caution:

 QNAP discl a ims any responsibility for product damage/malfunction or data

loss/rec overy due to misuse or improper installation of hard di sk s in any occa sions for

any reasons.

 Note that if a hard drive (new or used) which has never been installed on the NAS

before is installed, the hard drive w ill be formatted and pa rtitioned auto matica lly and all

the disk data will be cleared.

The NAS supports ho t-swapping the hard drives when 1 member dr ive crashes in RAID 1 or

1–2 mem b er drives crash in RAID 5 or RAID 6. Foll ow the steps below t o hot-swap the

hard drive when a member drive fails in a RAID configuration.

1. L o g in th e NA S a nd check t he st orag e pool status in “Storage Manager ” > “ Storage

Pools”.

2. The storage pool status should be “Warning” and RAID group status shoul d be

“Degraded”.

3. Prepare a new hard dr ive to replace the failed one. The capacity of the new hard drive

should b e the same as or larger than th e failed hard drive.

4. Un pl ug the failed drive f rom the NAS. Wait for about 2 0 seconds or until the server

beeps twice.

5. R e mov e the fa iled drive from the drive tray.

6. Install the new ha r d dr i ve o n t he dr ive tr a y. In s er t it to the N A S.

7. The server sh ould beep 1.5 seconds twice.

8. Check the volume status on the web administration page. The volume should be

rebuilding.

Warning: Users a re strong ly re comm ended to turn OFF the serv er befor e replacing

the hard drive to redu ce the ri sk of electric shock.

Chapter 9. RAID Recovery

The QNAP NAS su pports recovery of a fa iled RAID group f rom unintentional dis connection

or removal of the hard drives from the system. Users can recover an inactive RAID 1,

RAID 5, or RAID 6 group to degraded mode, or an inactive RAID 0 and JBOD configuration

to normal.

Disk volume Sup ports RA ID recov ery Maxim um number of d i sk

removal allowed

Single No -

JBOD Yes 1 or more

RAID 0 Yes 1 or more

RAID 1 Yes 1 or 2

RAID 5 Yes 2 or more

RAID 6 Yes 3 or more

RAID 10 No -

Follow the steps below to recover an inactive RAID group on the NAS:

1. Make sure the volume status of the RA ID group is “Not active”.

2. Install the same hard drives, which have been formerly removed from the NAS, back

to the same hard drive slots.

3. Go t o “Storage Mana g er” > “Storage Pools”. Select the degraded or inactiv e RAI D

group . Click “Manage” > “Recover”.

4. Wait for about 1 minute for the process to complete. When finished, the NAS data

can be accessed.

Note:

• After recovering a RAID 1, RAID 5, or RAID 6 RAID group from “not active” to degraded

mode by RAID rec overy, use rs can re a d or write the volu me normally. The volum e

status will be recovered to normal after synchronization.

• If the disconnected drive member is damaged, the RAID recovery function will not

work.

GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE

Version 3, 29 June 2007

Ev eryo ne is pe rm itte d to co py a nd d istr ibu te v er b ati m cop ie s of th is li ce nse doc um en t, but

cha nging it is not allowed.

Preamble

The GNU General Public License is a free, copyleft license for software and other kinds of

works.

The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed to take away your

free dom to share and chan ge the works. By contrast, the GNU General Public License is

intende d to gu a rantee your freedom to share and change all versions of a program--to

make s ure it rema ins free softw are for a ll its user s. W e, the Free So ftwa re Fo undatio n, use

the GN U Ge ner al Pub lic License for most of our s oftware; it applies a lso to any other work

released this way by it s authors. You ca n apply it to your programs, too.

When we speak of free software, we are refe rring to freedo m, not price. Our General Public

Licenses a re des ig ne d to ma ke sure t ha t y o u hav e the f re edom to dis tr ib ute co pies o f f ree

software (and charge for them if you wish), that you receive so urce code or can get it if you

want i t, tha t you ca n cha nge the sof tware or use piece s of it i n new free pro grams, and that

you know yo u ca n do these thi ngs.

To protect your rights, we need to prevent others from denying you these rights or asking

you to surrender the rights. Therefore, you have certain responsibilities if you distribute

copies of the software, or if you modify it: responsibilities to respect the freedom of others.

For exa mple, if y ou distri but e copies of such a prog ram, whether gratis or for a fee, you

must pass on to the re cipients t he sa me freedoms tha t yo u received. You m ust ma ke sur e

tha t they, too , receive or can g et the so urce code. And yo u must show them these terms so

they know their rights.

Develo per s tha t use the GNU GPL prot ect yo ur ri ght s wit h two step s: (1) a sser t co pyr igh t

on the software, an d (2) offer you this License giving you legal permission to copy,

distrib u te a nd /or mod ify it.

For the developers' and authors' protection, the GPL clearly explains that there is no

warranty for this free software. For both users' and authors' sake, the GPL requires that

modified version s be marked as changed, so that their problems will not be attributed

errone ously to auth ors of pre vious versions.

Some devices are desi gned to deny users access t o install or run modified versions of the

software inside them, although the manufacturer can do so. This is fundamentally

incompatible with the aim of pr otecti ng users ' free dom to change the sof twa re. The

systematic pattern of such abuse occurs in the area of products for individuals to use, which

is precisely where it is most unacceptable. Therefore, we have designed t his v er sio n of t he

GPL to prohibit the practice for those products. If suc h problems aris e subs tant ially in other

domain s, we sta nd ready to extend th is prov ision to tho se domains in future versions of the

GPL, as needed to protect the freedo m of users.

Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents. States should not

allow patents to restrict development and use of software on general-purpose computers,

but in those that do, we wish to avoid the special danger that patents applied to a free

program could make it effectively proprietary . T o prevent this, the GPL assures that patents

cannot be used to render the program non-free.

The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

0. Definitions.

“This License” refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License.

“Copyri g ht” also means copyright-like laws th at apply to other kinds of works, such as

sem icond uc to r masks.

“The Pro gr am” refers to an y co pyrightable w o rk l ice nsed u nde r t his L i ce nse. Each li cen see

is addressed as “you”. “Licensees” an d “recipi ents” may be individuals or organizations.

T o “modify” a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work in a fashion requiring

co p yr ight perm is s ion, other than the ma king of an ex a c t c o p y. The re sulti ng wo rk is called

a “m od ifie d version” of the earli er work or a work “ba sed on” the earlier work.

A “covered work ” mea ns either the unmodi fied Program or a work based on the Pr og ram.

To “propagate” a work mea ns to do any t h in g wi t h it that, without p er m ission, would m ake

you directly or secondarily liable for infringement under applicable copyright law, except

ex ecuting it on a computer or modifying a private cop y. Pr op a gat ion includes copying,

distribution (with or without modificati on), making available to the public, and in some

countries other activities as well.

To “c onve y” a wor k means any kind of propa g at ion tha t en a b les other parti es to make or

receive copie s. M ere i nter a ct io n w it h a u ser through a co mputer ne two rk, w it h no tr ans fe r

of a copy, is n ot conve ying.

An interactive user interface displays “Appropriate Legal Notices” to the extent that it

includes a convenient and prominently visible feature that (1) displ ays an appropriate

copyrig ht notice, and (2) tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the

extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the work under this

License, and how to view a copy of this License. If the interface presents a list of user

commands or options, such as a menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.

1. Source Code.

The “sourc e code” for a work me a ns t he preferred for m of the wor k for making

modifications to it. “Object code” means any non-source for m of a work.

A “Sta ndard Interface” means an interface that either is an official standard defined by a

recognized standards body, or, in the case of interfaces specified for a part icular

prog rammin g l an g uage, on e th a t is wi dely us e d amon g d ev elopers wor king in that

language.

The “System Libraries” of an executable work include anything, other than the work as a

whole, that (a) is included in the nor mal for m of packaging a Major Component, but which

is not part of that Major Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that

Major C omponent, or to implement a Standard Interface for which a n implement a tion is

available to the public in source code form. A “Major Component”, in this context, means a

major essential component (kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific oper a ting

system (if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to produce the work,

or an object code interprete r us e d to run it.

The “Corre spondin g Sou rce” for a work i n ob ject code form means al l the source code

needed to generate, install, and (for an executable work) run the object code and to modify

the work, i ncluding scripts to control those activities. However, it does not include the

work's Syst em Libraries, or general-purpose tools or g enerally available free programs

which are used unmodified in performing those activities but which are not part of the work.

For exa mple, Corresponding Sour ce include s in terface definition fi les associate d with

source files for the work, and the source code for shared l i brari es and dynamicall y lin ked

subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require, such as by intimate data

com munic at ion or control fl ow b etween those subprogram s an d other parts of the work .

The Co r re sp o nding So ur c e ne ed no t i nc lude anythi ng that use rs ca n regenerate

au tomatically f rom other p arts of th e Corresp ond ing S ource.

The Correspondin g Source f or a wor k in source code form is that sam e work.

2 . Ba sic Permissions.

Al l rig hts g r a nted und er this Li cen se a re g ra nt ed fo r th e te rm o f co p yrig ht o n t he Program,

and are irrevocable provided the stated conditions are met. This License explicitly affirms

your unlimited permissi on to run the unmodified Program. The output from runni ng a

covered work is covered by this Li cense only if the output, given its cont ent, constitutes a

covered work. This Licen se ackn owledges your rights of fair use or other equivalent, as

provided by copyright law.

You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not convey, without

conditions so lon g as your license otherwise remain s in force. You may convey covered

works to others for the sole purpose of having them make modifications exclusively for you,

or provide you wit h facilitie s f or running those wor ks, pr ovided that you comp ly with the

terms of this License in co nveying all material for which you do not control copyright. Those

thus making or running the cov ered work s f or you mu st do so exclu siv ely on your behalf,

under your direction and cont rol, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of

your copyri ghted material outside their relationship with you.

Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under the conditions stated

be lo w. Sublice n s i ng is not a l lo w e d ; se ctio n 10 makes i t unnec es sa ry.

3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.

No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological measure un der any

applicable law fulfilling obligations under article 11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on

20 December 1996, or similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such

measures.

When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid circumvention of

technological measures to the extent such circumvention is effected by exercising rights

under this License with respect to the covered wo rk, and you d isclaim any intentio n to li mit

operation or modific at ion of the w ork as a means of en forcing , a g a inst the work's use rs,

your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of technological measures.

4. C onveying Ver bat im Copies.

You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you receive it, in any

medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an

appropriate copyright notice; keep intact all notices stating that this License and any

non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code; keep intact all

notices o f the abs ence o f any wa rra n ty ; and give a ll re c ip ients a co p y o f th is Lic e n se alon g

wit h the P rogr a m.

You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey, and you may offer

support or warranty protection for a f ee.

5. C onveying Modified Source Version s.

You m ay convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to produce it fro m the

Prog ram, in the f orm of source c od e un d er the term s of section 4, provided that you also

meet all of these conditions:

a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified it , and giving a

relevant date.

b) The wo rk mus t ca r ry pro min en t no t ices s tat in g t hat it is re lease d und er th is L ice nse a nd

any conditions added under section 7. This requirement modifies the requirement in

section 4 to “keep intact all notices”.

c) You mu st license the entire work, as a whole, under this License to anyone who comes

into possession of a copy. This License will therefore apply, along with any applicable

section 7 additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts, regardless of how

they are packaged. This L ice nse g i ves no per mis sion to l ice nse t he w o rk i n a ny other way,

but it does not invalidate such permission if you have separate ly received it.

d) If the work has interac tive user interfaces, each must display Appropriate Lega l Notices;

however, if the Program has interactive interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal

Noti ces, your work need not make them do so.

A compila tion of a covered wo rk with o ther separ ate and in depe ndent works, w hich ar e no t

by t heir nature extensions of th e covered work, a nd which are not comb ined with i t such as

to form a larger program, in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an

“aggregate” if the co mpi latio n and i ts resulting co pyright are no t used to lim it the a cces s or

legal rights of the compilatio n's users beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion of

a covered work in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other parts of

th e aggregate.

6. C onveying Non-Source Forms.

You may convey a covered work in obje ct code form under the t er ms of sections 4 and 5 ,

provide d tha t yo u also co n vey the mac h ine-readable Corresponding Source under the

terms of this License, in one of these ways:

a) Convey the ob ject code in, or embodi e d in, a ph ys ical prod uct (including a physical

distribution m edium), accompanie d by the Corresp ondin g Source fixe d on a du rabl e

physi ca l med iu m cus toma r i ly used for software interchange.

b) Convey the object code in, or emb odi ed in, a physical product (including a physica l

distribution medium), accompanied by a written offer, valid for at least three years and

valid for as long as you offer spa re parts or cus tomer su p port for that product model, to

give a nyone who possesses the object code either ( 1) a copy of the Correspond ing Source

for all the software in the product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical

me d ium customaril y us ed f or softwa re interchange , for a price no more than you r

reasonable co st of p hysically performing this co nveying of source, or (2) access to copy the

Correspondin g Source from a network server at no ch arge.

c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the written offer to provide the

Correspondin g Source. This altern a tive is allowed only occasionally an d noncommercially,

an d only if you received the obje ct code with s uch an offer, in accord with subsection 6b.

d) Convey the object code b y of fering a ccess from a designated place (gratis or f or a

charge), a nd of fer eq uivalent access to the Corresponding Source in the same wa y thro ugh

the same place at no further charge. You need not require recipients to copy the

Corresponding Source along w ith the object co de. If the p lace to co p y t he ob j ect co de is a

network server, the Corresponding Source may be on a different server (operated by you or

a third party) that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain clear

dire ctio ns n e x t to the o b j e ct code saying where to find the Corresp onding S ource.

Regardless of wha t server hosts the Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure

that it is availabl e for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.

e) Convey the object code u sing peer-to-peer transmission, provided you inform other

peers where the object code and Corresponding Source of the work are being offered to the

general public at no charge under subsection 6d.

A separable portion of th e object code, whose source code is excluded from the

Correspondin g Source as a Syste m Library, need n ot b e included in conveying th e obje ct

code work.

A “User Product” is either (1) a “consumer product”, which means any tangible personal

prop erty which is norm a lly used for pers ona l, family, or household pu rposes, or (2 )

an ything d esigned or s old for inc orporation in to a d welling. In determinin g whether a

product is a consumer prod uct, doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage. For a

particular product received by a particular user, “normally used” refers to a typical or

common use of that class of product, regardless of the status of the particular user or of the

way in which the particular user actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product.

A p roduct is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial

commercial , industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent the only

significant mode of use of the product.

“I nstallation Information” for a User Produc t means any methods, p rocedures,

authorization keys, or other information required to install and execute modified versions

of a covered work in that User Product from a modified version of its Corresponding Source.

The information must suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified

object code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because modification has been

made.

If you convey an object code work under this s ec tion in, or with, or s pecifica lly for use in,

a User Product, and the conveying occurs as part of a transaction in which the right of

po sses sio n a nd us e o f t he U ser P ro du ct is tr ans fe rr ed to the re cip ie nt in p er pe tui ty o r fo r a

fixed term (regardless of how t he transaction is char a c terized), the C orrespo nd ing Sou rce

con veyed u nder this se ctio n m ust b e acco mpanied by the Installatio n Informa tion. B ut this

requirement does not apply if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install

modifie d object code on the User Product (for example, the wor k has b een installed in

ROM).

The requirement to provide Insta llatio n Inform atio n do es not includ e a requir em ent to

continue to provide support service, warranty , or updates for a work that has been modified

or installed by the recipient, or for the User Product in which it has been modified or

installed. Access to a network may be denied when the modification itself materially and

adversely affects the operation of the network or violates t he rules an d protocols for

communication across the network.

Co rre spo nd ing So urce co n vey e d, a nd In sta lla tio n Inf orma tion pr ov ided , in a cco rd wi t h th is

section must be in a format that is publicly documented (and with an implementation

avail a b le to the public in source cod e f orm), and must requir e no speci al p a ss w ord or key

for unpacking, reading or copying.

7. Add itional Te rm s.

“Additional permissions” are terms that supplement the terms of this License by making

exceptions from one or more o f its conditio ns. Additiona l per missio ns tha t are a pplicable to

the entire Program shall be treated as though they were included i n this License, to the

exte n t tha t t he y ar e va lid un der app li cab le la w . I f a dd itio na l pe rm iss ion s ap pl y on ly to p a rt

of the Progr am, t hat part may be used separate ly under those permissions, bu t the entire

Program remains governed by this License without regard to the additional permissions.

When yo u con vey a co py of a co vered work, yo u ma y at yo ur op tion re mo ve a ny add itiona l

permissions from t hat copy, or from a ny par t of it. (Additiona l permissions may be writte n

to require their own removal in certain cases when you modify the work.) You may place

ad dit iona l pe r miss io ns on ma ter ial, add e d b y you to a co ver ed wo rk, for w hic h you ha ve or

can give app ropriate copyri ght p ermission.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you add to a covered work,

yo u m a y ( i f autho r i z ed by t he cop yrigh t ho ld ers o f t ha t m a t e rial) s up plem e n t the terms of

this License with terms:

a) Discla iming warranty or limiting liab ility differently from the te rms of s ections 15 and 16

of this License; or

b) Req uiring p rese rvation of specified reaso nable legal not ices or author attr ibutions in tha t

material or in the Appropriate Legal Notices displayed by works containing it; or

c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or requiring th a t modified

versions of such material be marked in reasonable ways as different from the original

ve rsion ; or

d) Limiting the use for publicity p urpos es of na mes of licensors or authors of the material;

e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some trade names, trademarks,

or servi ce marks; or

f) Requi ring indemnification of licensors and authors of that material by anyone who

conveys the mate rial (or modified v ersions of it) with con tractual as sumptions of liabi lity to

the recipient, for any l iability that these contractu a l a ss umptions directl y impose on those

licensors an d authors.

All othe r non-permissive additional terms are considered “further restrictions” within the

meaning of section 10. If the Program as you received it, or any pa rt of i t, contains a no tice

stating tha t it is go verned by this Lice nse alo ng w ith a term tha t is a further rest riction, you

may remove that term. If a license document contains a further restriction but permits

relicensing or conveyi ng under this License, you may add to a covered work material

go ver ned by the te rms o f tha t l ic ens e do cu me nt, pro vid ed tha t the fur t her re s tric tio n d oes

not survive such relicensing or conveying.

If you add terms to a covered work in accord wi th this secti on, you must pla ce, in the

relevant source files, a statement of the additional terms that apply to those files, or a

notice indicating where to find the applicable terms.

Additio nal terms, permissive or non-p erm iss ive, may b e sta ted i n th e for m o f a separat ely

written license, or stated as exceptions; the above requirement s apply either way.

8. Termination.

You may not propagate or modify a cover ed work except as expressly prov ided under this

License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or modify it is void, and will automatically

terminate your rig ht s under th is License ( in cluding a ny pa t e n t li c en s es g r a nted u nd er t he

thir d paragraph of section 11).

How ever, if you c e a se all vi olati on of this Licen se, then your license fr om a p a rticula r

co p yr ight ho ld er is reinstated ( a ) provis io nal ly, u nless and u ntil the c o p yrigh t ho lder

explicitly and finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright holder

fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means prior to 60 days after the

cessation.

Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated permanently if the

co p yr ight ho ld er notif ies you of t he viola tion by so m e reaso na ble mea n s , th is is t he f i rs t

time you have received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that copyright

holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after your recei pt of the notice.

T ermination of your rights under this section does not terminate the licenses of parties who

have received copies or rights f rom you under th is License. If your rights have been

termina ted and not perma nently r einstated, y o u do not qualif y to rec eive ne w l ic ense s for

the same material under section 10.

9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.

Y ou are no t required to accep t this License in ord er to r ece ive or run a copy of the Program.

Ancill ary propagation of a covered work occurring solely as a consequen ce of u sing

peer-to-peer transmission to receive a copy likew ise does not require acceptance. However,

nothing other than this License grants you permissio n to propagate or modify a ny covered

work. These actions infringe copyright if you do n ot accept this Li cense. Therefore, by

modifying or propagating a covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this Li cense to

do so.

10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.

Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically receives a license f rom

the original licensor s, to run, modify and propag ate that work, subje ct to t his L icense. You

are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.

An “entity transaction” is a transaction transferring control of an organization, or

subs ta nt ial ly a ll as se ts o f o ne, o r s ubd ivid ing a n o rga niza tio n, o r me rg ing or gan iza tio ns. If

prop a gation of a covered work results fr om an entity transaction, each party t o that

transaction w ho rece iv es a copy of the work also r eceives whatever licenses to the work the

party's predecessor in interest had or could give under the previous paragraph, plus a right

to possession of the Corresponding Source of th e wo rk from the pr edecesso r in in terest, if

the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.

You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the rights granted or

affirmed under this License. For example, you may not impose a license fee, royalty, or

other charge for exe rcise of right s granted un der this License, and you may not in itiat e

litigation (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that any patent

claim is infr ing ed by ma ki ng, us ing, se lling, offering for sa le, or imp orting the Program or

an y portion of it.

11. Patents.

A “c ontributo r” is a cop yrig ht holder who autho r i z es use under this L icens e o f th e P ro g ra m

or a work on which the Program is based. The work thus lice nsed is called the contributor's

“c o ntributor ve r sion”.

A contributor's “essential patent claims” are all patent claims owned or controlled by the

contributor, whether already acquired or hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by

some manner, permitted by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,

but do not include clai ms that would be infringed only as a consequence of further

modification of the contributor version. For purposes of this definition, “control” includes

the right to grant patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of this

License.

Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-f ree patent license under

the contributor's essential patent claims, to make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and

otherwi se ru n, modify an d prop a g ate the contents of its cont ributor ve rsion .

In the following three paragraphs, a “patent license” is any express agreement or

commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent (such as an express

permission to practice a p a tent o r co v e na nt no t t o s ue fo r pa te nt infr inge m ent) . To “gr an t”

such a p a tent l ice nse to a p a rt y means to ma ke suc h a n a greemen t or co m mi t men t no t to

enf orce a patent against the party.

If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license, and the Corresponding

So urce of the w o rk is no t ava ilable fo r anyo ne to c o p y, f r ee of c ha rg e and unde r the t e r m s

of this License, through a publicly available network server or other readily accessible

means, then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding So urce to be so available, or (2)

arrange to deprive yo urself o f the be nefit of the paten t license for th is par ticular work, or ( 3)

arr ange, in a manner consistent with the req uire ments o f this L icense, to e xtend the patent

lic ense to do w ns tr e am recipients. “Knowingly relying” means you have actual knowledge

that, but for the patent license, your conveying t he covered work in a country, or your

recipi en t's use of the c overed work in a country, would infringe one or more id en tifiable

pa te n ts i n that country that you h a v e reason to beli e ve a re valid .

If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or arrangement, you convey, or

prop agate by p roc uring co n veya nce of, a co ver ed w ork, a nd gra nt a pa tent lice nse to som e

of the parties receiving the c overed work authorizing them t o use, propaga te, modify or

convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license you grant is

automatically extended to all reci pients of the covered work and works based on it.

A pat e n t licens e is “d iscriminatory” if it does not in clude within th e s cope of its c overag e,

prohibits the e xe rc ise of , or is cond itioned on the non-e xe rcise of one or more of the rights

tha t are specifica lly g rante d und er this L icens e . You m a y not c onv ey a cove re d wo rk if yo u

are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is in the business of distributing

software, under which you make payment to the third party based on the extent of your

activity of conveying the wor k, and under which the third party grants, to a ny of the parties

wh o would receive the cover ed work from you , a discriminatory patent licens e (a) i n

connection with c op ies of the cover ed work conveyed by you (or copies m a d e f rom those

copies ), or (b) prima rily for an d in connection with s p ecific pr oducts or compilations th at

contain t he co vere d work, unl ess you entered into tha t arr angement, or that pa tent lic ense

was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.

Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting any implied license or

other defens es to infringe ment that may otherw ise be available to yo u under applicable

pa te n t la w.

12. No Surrender of Oth ers' Freedom.

If conditions are i m posed on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that

co ntra d ic t t he cond it ion s o f th is L ic ens e, the y do not excuse you from the conditions of this

License. If you cannot convey a covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your

obligations under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence

you ma y not co nv ey it a t all. For examp le, if you agree to terms tha t obligate yo u to co llect

a royalty for fur ther conveying from those to whom you convey the Progra m, the only way

you could satisfy both those terms and this License would be to refrain entirely from

conveying the Pro g ram.

13. Use with the G NU Affero General Public License.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, yo u have permission to link or combine

any covered work with a work licensed under ver sion 3 of the GNU A f fero General Public

Li cense into a s ingle c ombined work, and to convey the resulting work. The terms of this

License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work, but the special

req u ir ements o f the GN U Affe ro Ge ne ral P ublic L i ce nse, se c tion 1 3, concer n ing i nte rac t io n

through a network will app ly to the combination as such.

14. Revised Versions of this License.

The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the GNU General

Pub l ic L icense from ti me to ti m e. Su c h ne w ve rsio ns w il l be s imilar in spirit to the p resen t

ve rsion , but may differ in d etail to add re ss new pr ob lems or concerns.

Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program specifies that a

cer tain n um b ered v e rsion o f the GN U Gener al Pu b lic Licens e “ or a ny la ter ve r s ion” ap plie s

to it, you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered

version or of any later ver sio n published by the Free Softw are Foundation. If the Progr am

does not spe cify a version numbe r of the GNU General Public License, you may choose any

version ever pu blished by the Free Software Foundation.

If the Progr am speci fies tha t a pro xy can d ecid e which futu re versio ns of the GNU Gene ral

Public License can be used, that proxy's public statement of acceptance of a version

permanently authorizes yo u to choose that ver sion for the Program.

Later l icense versions may give you additional or different permi ssions. However, n o

additional obligati ons are imposed on any author or copyri gh t holder as a result of your

cho o s i ng to follow a later v ersion.

1 5. Discla imer of Warranty.

THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR T HE PR OGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMIT TED BY APPLIC ABL E

LA W. EXC EPT WHEN OT HERW ISE ST A TED IN WR ITING THE COPYRIG HT HOL DERS AND/OR

OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM “AS IS” WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND,

EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDI NG, BUT NOT LIMITE D TO, THE IMPLIE D

WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE

ENTIRE R ISK AS T O TH E Q U AL IT Y AN D PERF O RMANC E OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.

SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY

SE RVICING, RE PA IR OR CORRECTION.

16. Limitation of Liability.

IN NO EVE NT UNLESS REQ UI RED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREE D TO IN WRITING WILL

ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS THE

PROGRA M AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY

GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE

USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF

DA TA OR DA TA BEING RENDERED INACCURA TE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD

PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),

EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF

SUCH DAMAGES.

17. I nterpretation of Sections 15 and 16.

If the d iscla im er of wa rr a nty a nd l im ita tio n of lia bili ty p ro v ided above c a nno t be g iv en loca l

legal effect according to their terms, reviewing co urts shall apply local law that most closely

approximates an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connectio n with the Program, unless

a warranty or assumptio n of liability accompanies a copy of the Program in return for a fee.
