Setting up an enterprise license
The enterprise license type is a company-wide site license for the product. It counts all instances of the product associated to the license.
To set up an enterprise license and calculate compliance
- On the IT Home page, select Product Catalog > Product Catalog console.
- Create a Product Catalog entry with Product Type = Software and CI Type = Product.
- Click the Model/Version tab and enter values for the Model/Version and Market Version, and set Requires Contract to Yes.
- On the IT Home page, select Asset Management > Manage CI, and create a new Product CI using the Product Catalog entry from step 2.
- On the IT Home page, select Asset Management > Manage CI and create a new Computer System CI.
- On the IT Home page, select Asset Management > Manage CI, search for the Product CI that you created in step 4, and relate the Product CI to the Computer System CI created in step 5 as a component or hosted system component.
- On the IT Home page, select Contract Management > Contract Console and create a new software contract for your software. Then, create a license certificate for the software contract that you just created. Use the product categorization from step 2. Choose the Enterprise license type.
- On the IT Home page, select Asset Management > SAM console > Manage License Jobs, and create a new license job for the enterprise license.
- Run the license job.
The compliance details for the license certificate reports the number of Computer System CIs with the related software. No compliant or non-compliant result is shown.
