Review licensing information to
monitor
used
mobile
device licenses, license expiry dates, and other license details. This
information allows administrators to manage license use and determine whether old or
unused device licenses should be transferred to new devices.
- Open SAP Control Center.
- In the left navigation pane, select the top-level tree node.
- In the right administration pane, select the General
tab, and click Licensing.
- Review the following licensing information:
- Server license type – the type of license currently used by
SAP Mobile Platform. For more information on license
types, see SAP Mobile Platform License Types.
- Production edition – the edition of the software you have
installed.
- Server license expiry date – the date and time at which the server
license expires. When a server license expires,
SAP Mobile Server generates a license expired error and
SAP Mobile Server is stopped.
- Overdraft mode – allows you to generate additional licenses in excess of
the quantity of licenses you actually purchased. This enables you to exceed
your purchased quantity of licenses in a peak usage period without impacting
your operation. This mode is either enabled or disabled, as specified by the
terms of the agreement presented when you obtain such a license.
- Used mobile user license count – the number of mobile user licenses
currently in use. A mobile user is a distinct user identity—username and
associated security configuration—that is registered in the server. As such,
the used mobile user license count represents the total distinct user
identities registered on the server. One mobile user may access:
- Multiple applications and different versions of the same
application.
- The same or different versions of an application from multiple
devices.
- Click Close.
Note: SAP Mobile Platform licensing is configured during installation.
However, if necessary, license details can be changed at a later time.
