When you place an order for purchasing
a new license, an email is sent from Dell about the order confirmation,
and you can download the new license file from the Dell Digital store.
The license is in an .xml format. If the license is in a .zip format,
extract the license .xml file from the .zip file before uploading.
Stacking licenses
Starting from the OMIVV version 2.1, OMIVV can stack
multiple standard licenses to increase the number of supported hosts
to the sum of the hosts in the uploaded licenses. An evaluation license
cannot be stacked. The number of supported vCenter servers cannot
be increased by stacking, and requires the use of multiple appliances.
There are some restrictions around the functionality
of stacking licenses. If a new standard license is uploaded before
the existing standard license expires, the licenses stack. Otherwise,
if the license expires and a new license is uploaded, only the number
of hosts from the new license is supported. If there are already multiple
licenses uploaded, the number of supported hosts are the sum of the
hosts in the non-expired licenses at the time the last license was
uploaded.
Expired licenses
Licenses that are past their support duration, typically
three or five years from the date of purchase are blocked from being
uploaded. If licenses have expired after being uploaded, functionality
for existing hosts continues; however upgrades to new versions of
the OMIVV are blocked.
Replacement of licenses
If there is a problem with your order and you receive
a replacement license from Dell, the replacement license contains
the same entitlement ID of the previous license. When you upload a
replacement license, the license is replaced if a license was already
uploaded with the same entitlement ID.
