Migrate from Dell Server Management Pack Suite
Version 6.0 for Microsoft SCOM
Until Dell Server Management Pack Suite Version 6.0 for SCOM, 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 SCOM even after reaching or exceeding the limit of the number of licenses
purchased from Dell Technologies. 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 SCOM are still applicable to Dell
Server Management Pack Suite Version 6.1 and later for SCOM. Therefore, after a product upgrade, the earlier license is still
valid, and you can still manage servers based on the permissible count mentioned in the previously purchased license.
