    The following table describes the fields on this panel:

    Field

    Description

    Password library

    Name of the password library

    Product code

    Code that BMC assigns to the product

    Last changed (mm/dd/yy-hh:mm)

    Date and time that the product authorization tables were last modified

    The variables are as follows:

    • mm represents the month (in the range 01-12).
    • dd represents the day (in the range 01-31).
    • yy represents the year (in the range 00-99).
    • hh represents the hour (in the range 00-23).
    • mm represents minutes (in the range 00-59).

    Last changed by

    User ID or job that requested the modification

    Grace period ends (mm/dd/yyyy)

    Date when the grace period (if triggered) will end

    The variables are as follows:

    • mm represents the month (in the range 01-12).
    • dd represents the day (in the range 01-31).
    • yyyy represents the year (in the range 0001-9999).

    Note: This line appears only if the failure mode is phased and the grace period has been triggered. The grace period can be triggered when you run a permanently licensed product on an unlicensed processor. You should apply a RESET password to reset the grace period. For assistance, contact your BMC sales representative.

    Temporary expiration date (mm/dd/yyyy)

    Date on which you will no longer be allowed to bypass the CPU ID check or the product

    The variables are as follows:

    • mm represents the month (in the range 01-12)
    • dd represents the day (in the range 01-31)
    • yyyy represents the year (in the range 0001-9999)

    Note: If this expiration date has not yet been reached, you can run this product on any processor. On the date shown, your trial period will end or (if you have licensed the product) you will be able to run the product only on authorized processors.

    Licensed Processors

    List of properties for each licensed CPU

    The Version Code column reflects the hardware representation of the submodel. Significant Digits refers to the number of significant digits for the serial number. The expiration date indicates the month and year through which you are licensed for the specific processor. In most cases, this value is NONE. Most of the remaining processor information is provided for reference in case you need to contact BMC Customer Support.

    This panel displays the CPU serial and model numbers for the processor on which TSO is running. The panel also displays the version code of the processor. The version code is the hardware representation of the submodel (for example, the 942 in ES/9000-942 or 600 for a 3090-600 processor).

    Important

    Version code X'FF' indicates that MVS is running as a VM guest. Code X'FF' is not the processor version code. To determine the processor version code, run the LIST option of the batch Product Authorization utility from an APF-authorized library. For more information, see Applying and managing passwords with the batch interface.


    This panel also displays the number of processors that are online to the current operating system. This information might be relevant to your BMC license agreement.

    Important

    The information that is displayed on this panel might not refer to a computer on which you are licensed to run a BMC product. For example, if you log on to TSO on SYSA but run your BMC product on SYSB, your product authorization entries might refer to SYSB.

  4. To exit the Product Authorization utility, press F3.
