DESCRIPTION

The vselicense command is installed on the Central Management Server (CMS) with Insight Dynamics. This command installs and removes Licenses to Use (LTUs) for the HP Insight Dynamics - VSE suite for Integrity. It can also be used to correct the number of per-core or per-socket licenses that are applied for LTUs.

This command applies only to HP Integrity systems running HP-UX, Linux, or Microsoft Windows operating systems, and HP 9000 systems running HP-UX. It is not used for licenses based on “5x5” keys (introduced with VSE Management Software version 4.0). It is only used for trial licenses included with Insight Dynamics and for the LTUs in the following list. You may have these LTUs installed from a previous version of the VSE Management Software, or from the HP-UX VSE or DC Operating Environments.

T2786AC HP VSE Suite for HP-UX 11i LTU T2784AC HP Capacity Advisor for HP-UX LTU T2782AC HP Virtualization Manager for HP-UX LTU T2762AA HP Global Workload Manager Agent LTU T2807AC HP Capacity Advisor for Integrity Windows T2806AC HP Virtualization Manager for Integrity Windows T2785AC HP Capacity Advisor for Integrity Linux T2783AC HP Virtualization Manager for Integrity Linux

Starting with VSE Management Software version 4.0 (A.04.00.07.xx), licenses are now managed in the HP Systems Insight Manager (SIM) License Manager database on the CMS. These licenses are encoded in a “5x5” key consisting of 5 blocks of 5 numbers or characters. These licenses are added to the CMS and applied to managed systems through HP SIM.
