When you order a new license, an email is sent from Dell EMC after the order confirmation. You can download the new license file from the Dell EMC Digital Locker at
https://www.dell.com/suppot. The license is sent to you as an XML file. If you receive a ZIP file instead, extract the XML file first before uploading it.
Stacking licenses
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. By default, OMIVV supports up to 15 vCenters. If you want to manage more than 15 vCenters, use multiple appliances.
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 nonexpired licenses at the time when 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, some of the functionality may not work. 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 EMC, 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.
