licenses). The next step is to review your CALs to ensure that your enterprise has the appropriate
number of CALs to client ratio (1-to-1 ratio).
If authorized CALs exceed 5% of that specific CAL total, new client activations for that specific product
is blocked until the license key is brought into compliance. No other client or Dell Server functions is
impacted when a license key is in the over 105% state. Two separate warning messages are displayed,
the first warning message is when the CAL reaches 99% of the authorized licenses, the second when
the CAL count reaches or exceeds the 105% total.
For example:
• Authorized CAL for Dell Encryption (Windows): 5000 user licenses
• First warning message from Dell Server and an email message is sent to the administrator:
CAL count reaches 5000
• Second warning message from Dell Server and an email message is sent to the administrator:
CAL count reaches 5250
If a user has previously been activated and inventory records exist, then it is not blocked from any re-
activation. However, if the CAL authorized count is exceeded during this process, new activations are
blocked for the specific CAL that is in the over 105% state.
