Licensing cellular Integrity systems
The procedure to license cellular Integrity systems varies from the procedure to license other servers.
To license the cellular Integrity systems
1. Log into HP SIM. The All Systems page appears.
2. Select the server you need to license and click Option > PMP > Monitoring Administration. The Verify Target
System page appears.
3. In the Verify Target Systems page, if you select Next, the Integrity system is automatically licensed. The system is
listed in the licensed system table in the Licensing Setup page.
If there are not enough licenses, the Integrity system will be listed under Server Available for Licensing. In the
License Status column, the following message is displayed:
"No available licenses."
In this case, you need to add a license. For more information on adding licenses, see Adding Licenses
.
Licensing VM Hosts and VM Guests
The procedure to license VM Hosts does not vary from the procedure to license other servers. However, as a
prerequisite, the VM Host must be licensed in VMM. The VM Host cannot be licensed for PMP if it is not licensed in
VMM. The VM Guests do not need any license for PMP and all VM Guests will be displayed in the Licensing
Administration page -> All Devices Not Available for licensing list with the license status as “VM Guest”.
TIP: If a server is licensed for PMP and then converted to a VM Host, it is not required to license the VM
Host again for PMP, but PMP will expect that the same VM Host be licensed for VMM. The VM Host can
be monitored only when licensed by VMM. Similarly, if a VM Host is converted to a physical server, it is
not expected to be licensed again for PMP.
NOTE: To license a server for VMM, refer to the VMM documentation.
Monitoring administration
Servers are monitored based on monitoring parameters. The monitoring status, log days and the number of samples
are set in PMP for servers and storage enclosures you want to monitor.
