Users Guide

If there are already multiple licenses uploaded, the number of supported servers are the sum of the servers in the licenses at the time the
last license was uploaded.
Replacement of licenses
If there is a problem with your order, or when you try to upload a modied or corrupt le, an error message is displayed for the same. You
can request for another license le from the Dell Digital store. Once you receive a replacement license, the replacement license contains the
same entitlement ID of the previous license. When you upload a replacement license, the license is replaced if a license was already
uploaded with the same entitlement ID.
Reimporting licenses
If you try to import the same license le, an error message is displayed. Purchase a new license, and import the new license le.
Importing multiple licenses
You can import multiple license les with dierent entitlement ID to increase the number of discovering, and maintaining servers in
OMIMSSC.
Enforcement
Upgrading licenses
You are allowed to work with OMIMSSC with the existing license le for all the supported server generations. If the license le does not
support the latest server generation, then purchase new licenses.
Evaluation License
When an evaluation license expires, several key areas cease to work, and an error message is displayed.
License consumption in OMIMSSC after server discovery
When you attempt to add a host or discover a bare-metal server, you are warned about your usage and it is recommended to purchase new
licenses under the following circumstances:
• If the number of licensed servers exceed beyond the number of licenses purchased
• If you have discovered servers equal to the number of licenses purchased
• If you exceed the number of licenses purchased, then you are given a grace license.
• If you have exceeded the number of licenses purchased, and all the grace licenses.
NOTE
: Grace license is 20 percent of the total number of license purchased. So the actual licenses you can use in OMIMSSC is
total licenses purchased plus the grace license.
