and applied licenses for all products in the HP SIM License Manager database. To use HP SIM
License Manager, you must have administrative rights on the CMS.

Some licenses cannot be applied through License Manager:

Trial licenses can only be applied to managed systems by the Insight managed system setup
wizard or by the vselicense command. For information about vselicense, see

vselicense(1M) [p. 41]

.

LTUs from earlier versions of the VSE Management Software for Integrity or from the HP-UX
VSE or DC Operating Environments are managed using the vselicense command or the
“Scan for HP-UX Licenses” tool. For more information, see

“Scan for HP-UX licenses”

(page 19)

.

To start License Manager, select Deploy

License Manager... from the HP SIM menu. This

menu selection will only be available if you have administrative rights on the CMS. Online help
is available to guide you through the use of License Manager.

The “Deploy: HP Insight Dynamics - VSE suite for Integrity Licenses” screen performs the final
step of assigning or un-assigning licenses for Insight Dynamics to Integrity managed systems.
This screen is not used to apply licenses for the HP Insight Capacity Advisor Consolidation
software, the HP Insight Dynamics suite for ProLiant, or the HP Insight Dynamics suite for
non-HP servers. Online help is available to guide you in using this screen.

For systems that will be managed by a CMS running Microsoft Windows, applying licenses in

Scan for HP-UX licenses

Use the “Scan for HP-UX Licenses” task to perform the following functions:

Enable the HP Insight Dynamics - VSE suite for Integrity licenses that are included in the
HP-UX Operating Environments.

Migrate unused licenses that were purchased for release 3.x or earlier of the VSE Management
Software to the HP SIM License Manager database and apply them to your managed systems
(if permitted by your licensing agreement with HP).

To launch the task, click Scan for HP-UX Licenses... on the “Deploy: HP Insight Dynamics –
VSE suite for Integrity Licenses” screen. On the “Task Confirmation” screen, click Run Now.
Online help is available to guide you through the operation. This task scans for licenses for any
VSE Management Software for Integrity LTU that is installed on the managed systems. It is not
restricted to the type of license that was originally selected in License Manager. It will only
discover licenses on HP-UX systems, even if other types of systems were included in the License
Manager system selection. For more information about scanning for HP-UX licenses and migrating
unused licenses from earlier software versions, see
