3.3.1 Preparing to install a permanent license key
The temporary license has a 250 node limit. If you have been running NNMi with a temporary license key, you might be managing more nodes than your permanent license supports. When the permanent license takes effect, NNMi automatically unmanages nodes of its choosing to achieve the license limit.
If you want to control which nodes are no longer managed with the permanent license, use the NNMi console to delete less important nodes before installing your new license key.
- Organization of this subsection
(1) Checking the license type and the number of managed nodes
To determine the type of license that NNMi is using, follow these steps:
-
In the NNMi console, click Help > About Network Node Manager i.
-
In the About Network Node Manager i window, click Licensing Information.
-
Look for the value shown in the Consumption field.
This value is the number of nodes that NNMi is currently managing.
-
If your permanent license supports fewer nodes than NNMi is currently managing, use the NNMi console to delete less important nodes. For details, see Delete Nodes in NNMi Help.
