Select the Contract for the product in the Gov Region where you want to deploy your product.There is no cross-region aggregation. Make sure that all your tenants are in the same region for monitoring purposes.Starting in January 2023, when you select the Singapore or Australia region to deploy your product, all the tenant data (such as configuration, telemetry logs, system logs, and stats) is now provisioned and stored in the selected region. The new behavior is available only for new licenses and new tenant activations in both single-tenant and multitenant hierarchies. The previous behavior was that only stats were stored in the selected region but the tenant, configuration, and logs were provisioned in the US or EU regions.Activate Now.The status will display as Provisioning while activation is in progress and then will display as Up after the activation is successful. You now have a tenant provisioned with an instance of the product that you purchased. The tenant has one user — the Customer Support account that you used when you began this process.(Optional) add user access and assign roles.To complete the product setup, you must access the products you purchased and perform any required post-installation configuration.
