To add your vRealize Operations for Published Applications license key, select Administration > Licensing
in the vRealize Operations Manager user interface and add your license key to VMware Published Apps
Solution on the License Keys tab.
For detailed information about adding license keys, see the vRealize Operations Manager Customization and
Administration Guide.
If your vRealize Operations for Published Applications license key expires, the
vRealize Operations for Published Applications adapter stops populating vRealize Operations Manager
with data. If you have a valid license key but you exceed the license count, vRealize Operations Manager
generates alerts on certain dashboards. The vRealize Operations for Published Applications adapter does
not restrict data when the license count is exceeded.
Associate XD-XA Objects with Your
vRealize Operations for Published Applications License Key
You must associate XD-XA objects with your vRealize Operations for Published Applications license key by
editing license groups in vRealize Operations Manager.
A license group is a way to gather certain objects, called license group members, under a particular license
key. By default, the vRealize Operations Manager and vRealize Operations for Published Applications
license groups both include all host, virtual machine, and datastore objects. Because these objects are
members of both license groups, they are covered by both your vRealize Operations Manager license and
your vRealize Operations for Published Applications license.
Each license group includes membership criteria that you can use to lter the objects that are members of
the license group. By editing the membership criteria for the vRealize Operations Manager and
vRealize Operations for Published Applications license groups, you can specify that certain objects are
covered only under your vRealize Operations for Published Applications license key.
