Licensing for Dell EMC Server Management Pack
Suite
License Information
The Server and Rack Workstation Monitoring (Licensed) feature in Dell EMC Server Management Pack Suite for OpsMgr is licensed.
Information on the process for obtaining software licenses is as follows.
Licenses
Licenses must be purchased based on the desired number of nodes you want to monitor.
Purchasing Licenses
To leverage the Server and Rack Workstation Monitoring (Licensed) feature functionalities, you must purchase licenses (based on the
desired number of managed nodes) from Dell. The order conrmation and license is sent as an e-mail to the e-mail ID that you have
specied in My Account — Dell. The purchased licenses are also downloadable from the Dell Digital Locker portal at http://www.dell.com/
support/licensing. If you are unable to download your licenses, email Dell Customer Support by going to www.dell.com/support/incidents-
online/in/en/indhs1/email/order-support.
Checking License Usage
A Console requires a license to manage PowerEdge servers. To view the PowerEdge servers managed by Server and Rack Workstation
Monitoring (Licensed) feature for OpsMgr: In OpsMgr, select Monitoring > Dell > Feature Management Dashboard
The number of nodes consumed is displayed in the Total Node Count column.
Change from Dell Server Management Pack Suite Version 6.0 for OpsMgr
Until Dell Server Management Pack Suite Version 6.0 for OpsMgr; Dell Connections License Manager (DCLM) was required to manage
licenses. For Dell Server Management Pack Suite Version 6.1 and later, you do not require DCLM.
There is no longer a license-count enforcement post DCLM being removed. You can continue to manage the PowerEdge servers using
Server and Rack Workstation Monitoring (Licensed) feature for OpsMgr even after reaching or exceeding the limit of the number of
licenses purchased from Dell. The Checking License Usage section presents the steps to help you determine the number of nodes being
managed to ensure that you have the appropriate number of license entitlements from Dell Inc. Purchase additional licenses if the number
of nodes you are managing exceeds the number of licenses you have purchased.
Licenses that you have purchased for Dell Server Management Pack Suite Version 6.0 for OpsMgr are still applicable to Dell Server
Management Pack Suite Version 6.1 and later for OpsMgr. So, after a product upgrade, the earlier license is still valid and you can still
manage servers per the permissible count mentioned in the previously purchased license.
License terms and conditions
The licenses are also governed by the same license terms as the product EULA. You can get the latest updated license terms at dell.com/
