Licensing

The HPE License Key Delivery Service web site (webware.hp.com) manages HP software licensing for the IT Business Analytics application. You can view or download the latest version of the ESD and Webware License Management Guide from this site. The guide describes the current process to obtain your entitlement certificate, which contains the HP order number that you need to generate your permanent license keys.

Follow the steps in the ESD and Webware License Management Guide to present your HP order number, select the products that need licenses, and provide other required information.

If you are a first time visitor to the web site, you will be asked to create an account with an email address and password. Most requests to generate permanent license keys require the following:

  • IT Business Analytics product name and number shown on the product receipt or in the email sent by HPE to acknowledge the order.
  • The order number from the entitlement certificate.
  • A target server name and IP address.
  • Contact information, such as company name, your name, fax and phone numbers, and license ownership details.

If necessary, you can return to the HPE License Key Delivery Service web site and retrieve the permanent or temporary license keys again by selecting Manage Licenses on the web site home page and logging into your account.

If you have an existing SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise installation, you can use that instance. If you purchase SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise with HPE IT IT Business Analytics, the purchase includes the required licenses.

Other applications that generate or use data, require separate licenses.
