Following the extraction, the user must copy the license file to the appropriate directory. In this case, the directory is specified as /home/user1/NetApp/xFiles/xcp/. It is important to ensure that the license file is placed in the correct location to avoid any issues during activation.

To verify that the license file has been successfully copied to the designated directory, the user can check the contents of the /home/user1/NetApp/xFiles/xcp/ directory. This step is crucial to confirm that the license file is present and ready for activation.
