Step 2. Activate a suite license

Tip In a testing environment, you can skip this step and use a 60-day trial license for the suite. The trial license is used automatically if you do not install a perpetual license.

The ITOM Platform license is included in the suite licenses. You only need a suite license to install a suite. The suite license contains license keys for all capabilities of the suite.

To activate a license for the suite, perform the following steps:

Closed1 — Activate a suite license
  1. Go to the HPE Software Entitlement Portal.
  2. Obtain an Operations Bridge Suite license.

  3. Activate the license. Enter any valid IP address in the Locking Information field — this must not be the IP address of your master or worker nodes.

  4. Download the license file to your local drive.
Closed2 — Install the suite license

To install the suite license on the ITOM Platform, do the following:

  1. Launch the ITOM Platform from a supported web browser:

    https://<external_access_host>:5443

    <external_access_host> is the fully qualified domain name of the host which you specified as EXTERNAL_ACCESS_HOST in the install.properties file during the ITOM Platform installation. Usually, this is the master node's FQDN.

  2. Log in as the admin user.
  3. Click ADMINISTRATION > License.
  4. Click Install Licenses.

  5. Click Choose File to browse to the license file on your local drive, then click Next.

    The license details are displayed.

  6. Select all listed licenses and click Install Licenses.
  7. Optional. When the installation is complete, click View Licenses to view the installed licenses.
