Dell License Manager Version 1.7 User's Guide

Importing archived licenses from the Dell Online Licensing Portal

You can download licenses from the Dell Online Licensing Portal at dell.com/support/retail/lkm. You can purchase licenses when you purchase a server or chassis. The licenses are installed from the factory. The downloaded license package contains a license archive in a compressed file format (.zip format). The license archive contains license files in .xml format. You can import archived licenses. However, you cannot import expired or evaluation licenses.
  1. In License Manager, click Actions > Launch Dell Online Licensing Portal.
  2. From the Dell licensing portal, download the required licenses to a file system.
  3. From Licenses, select Import Licenses.
  4. In Select Licenses, browse to the location where the license files are downloaded, select the license package, and then click Open.
    NOTE If a system has a license with the same Entitlement ID, the duplicate license is flagged for potential licensing issues.
  5. In Import Licenses:
    1. If you want to filter the list of validated licenses based on the matching inventoried systems, select the Import only those licenses which match inventoried systems check box.
    2. Select valid licenses.
