On a VM instance of CPPM, the permanent license must be entered.
These licenses are listed in the tables on the License Summary tab. There is one entry per server node in the cluster. All
application licenses are also listed on the Applications tab.
You can add and activate OnGuard, Guest, Onboard, Enterprise, and WorkSpace application licenses. The Summary
section shows the number of purchased licenses for Policy Manager, OnGuard, Guest, Onboard, and WorkSpace.

If the number of licenses used exceeds the number purchased, you will see a warning four months after the number is
exceeded. The licenses used number is based on the daily moving average.
