Licensing information
TrueSight Operations Management Reporting is included under the same license as of TrueSight Operations Management. The SAP® BusinessObjects that supports creation of custom reports is an add-on license, and should be obtained separately.
A perpetual, unlimited concurrent user license for viewing reports in Business Objects (BO) is included in the TrueSight Operations Management – Base license. This BO can be used only for reporting on data collected by TrueSight Operations Management and its components, including BMC Performance Reporting, TMART, and BEM/SIM. It CANNOT be used for any other BMC product.
All reporting capabilities for the TrueSight Operations Management data and components (for example, BMC Performance Manager Portal, BMC Transaction Management (TM ART), BMC Event Manager/Service Impact Model) are included in the TrueSight Operations Management Suite - Base License, with the following exceptions:
TrueSight Reporting Studio entitles a customer to use Business Objects to customize out-of-the-box and create new web intelligence reports. The product does not require a separate license key to activate the creation and edit functionality. However, any customer who plans to customize out-of-the-box reports for BMC Performance Manager Reporting (Patrol Reporting) or TrueSight Operations Management Reporting (as of version 8.5) is required to license the TrueSight Reporting Studio. This is only required if the customer is using the Business Objects included in the BMC TrueSight Operations Management base license.
License for SAP® BusinessObjects
