Parameter: disableWSEss

Startup parameters change the behavior of the HPE Service Manager server. You can always set a startup parameter from the server's operating system command prompt.

Parameter

Description

  • If this parameter is set in sm.ini or the server's operating system command prompt (no value needed), a non-ESS user then consumes a Floating or Named login license.
