Dell License Manager Version 1.7 User's Guide

Logging in to other Dell Online Account

The License Manager supports the feature to connect to Dell Online by using a different account. The systems can be discovered by using more than one account and not a single account. By logging in to different accounts, the account-specific licenses can be downloaded and bound to the discovered systems. The entitlements of the current account are not displayed when you log in to a different account.

To log in to another Dell Online account:

  1. In License Manager, click Actions > Login to another Dell account.
    NOTE Logging in by using another Dell Online account disconnects you from the current Dell Online account.
  2. In Disconnect from Dell Online window, click Yes.
  3. In the Connect to Dell Online window, click the Dell Online link to request the OTP.
  4. In the Dell Online portal, enter the credentials, and then click Sign In.
    The OTP is generated and displayed.
  5. Copy the generated OTP from the Dell Online Portal.
    NOTE The OTP is valid for 10 minutes. If the OTP is not used within 10 minutes, it has to be requested again by connecting to Dell Online.
  6. In the Connect to Dell Online window, enter the OTP that was copied from the Dell Online Portal.
    1. Select Save Connection credentials option to save the connection credentials to reconnect to Dell Online. If the Save connection credentials option is not selected or login account is changed, and then the saved credentials become invalid. You must request a new OTP by connecting to Dell Online.
    2. Select Automatically connect on start up option to automatically reconnect the License Manager to the Dell Online account when the License Manager starts.
    3. Select the Enable Proxy Settings option to enter the proxy settings, if your network requires proxy settings to connect.
    NOTE The proxy settings are not saved with the user credentials and should be entered when prompted.
  7. Click Next.
  8. In the Connection Results window, you can see if the connection to Dell Online is successful. If the connection is successful, click Next.
  9. If the License Manager is not able to connect to Dell Online because of an invalid OTP or incorrect proxy settings, click Close.
    To reconnect to Dell Online, obtain a new OTP or ensure that the correct proxy settings are entered. After the download of the license information is complete, a summary of the purchased licenses that are unbound is displayed.
  10. Click Close.
    The Task Status window is displayed.
The summary of the downloaded entitlements can be viewed in the Entitlements navigation pane. To bind the licenses to the discovered and inventoried devices, see Binding licenses.
NOTE To disconnect from Dell Online, see Disconnecting from Dell Online.
