OpenManage Enterprise—Server Configuration
Management License
NOTE: Installing and using OpenManage Enterprise–Tech Release does not require the
OpenManage Enterprise —
Server Configuration Management
license. Only the server configuration management feature requires that the
OpenManage Enterprise — Server Configuration Management
license is installed on target servers. The
OpenManage
Enterprise — Server Configuration Management
and
OpenManage Essentials
licenses are required only for deploying
device configurations and verifying configuration compliance on servers. This license is not required for creating device
configuration template from a server.
The OpenManage Enterprise — Server Configuration Management license enables you to deploy a device configuration and verify device
configuration compliance on licensed servers. The license is a perpetual license that is valid for the life of a server, and can be bound to the
Service Tag of only one server at a time. OpenManage Enterprise–Tech Release provides a built-in report to view the list of devices and
their licenses. Click OpenManage Enterprise > Monitor > Reports > License Report. Click Run. See Running reports.
NOTE: Enabling the server configuration management feature in OpenManage Enterprise–Tech Release does not
require any separate license. If the
OpenManage Enterprise — Server Configuration Management
license is installed on
a target server, you can use the server configuration management feature on that server.
Licensable Servers
You can deploy the OpenManage Enterprise — Server Configuration Management license on the following PowerEdge servers:
• 13th generation (13G) servers having the iDRAC8 2.50.50.50 or later firmware versions. 13G iDRAC versions are backward compatible
