  • 1.  Help on Licensing urgently needed!

    Posted Nov 02, 2010 06:40 AM

    I have to help make a software license Compliance report for a customer.

    I have all their scanning results and now have to identify each single string found (scans from "Add/remove programs".

    I have a list of Altiris exe files and have already spent hours trying to look up each single altiris string on the internet. It is hopeless. It is very diffifult to find licensing conditions. What I need is simply to know whether the exe is: Commercielt (i.e. must have a license) or Bundled (i.e. is covered by the main product license-wise). So "C" or "B"

    Is there anybody out there that can help me? Please?

    The strings I still need to have identified are:

     

    Altiris Agent
    Altiris ASDK
    Altiris ASDK NS COM
    Altiris ASDK Task COM
    Altiris Deployment Solution - Wise Packager
    Altiris Directory Services
    Altiris DiscoveryTasksLP
    Altiris eXpress Deployment Server Web Console
    Altiris eXpress PXE Server
    Altiris Inventory Pack for Server Upgrade
    Altiris Inventory Pack for Servers Agent
    Altiris MibIMportTaskLP
    Altiris Monitor Agent Package
    Altiris NetworkInventoryTaskLP
    Altiris NS Automation
    Altiris PXE Manager
    Altiris Reporting
    Altiris Resource Management
    Altiris Server 7.0
    Altiris Server Reports
    Altiris_NS_CommonLanguages

    Altiris Console

    Even if you only have the solution for one or two, I'll be very grateful for your feed back.

    Please help me.

    I am going to move this thread to the Altiris forum for better visibility.

    In the case of Altiris, all licensing is enforced on the server so even if you were over-installed for your licenses, Altiris would be enforcing it on the server-side.

    i.e. if you have 200 PC's with the agent and inventory solution installed but only own 100 licenses, Altiris will not keep inventory information on the other 100 computers.

    I'm not clear on what you're trying to accomplish here.  Most (if not all) of the Altiris product licensing is controlled from within the Altiris console, or no license is required at all (i.e. the ASDK entries in your list above).  The license status can be viewed (in the NS6 console at least) on the Configuration tab under Licensing.  All installed products, the total available licenses and in use licenses will be listed.
