New-OVLicense
Syntax
Description
The following types of licenses are available for managing or monitoring hardware in HPE OneView.
Managed hardware licenses
HPE OneView Advanced
This licnese type provides both an HPE OneView Advanced license and an iLO Advanced license. This license is intended for server hardware and enclosures you want to manage with HPE OneView.
HPE OneView Advanced w/o iLO
This license type rovides an HPE OneView Advanced license only. It is intended for server hardware you want to manage with HPE OneView. This license is for servers with iLOs that are already licensed, or server hardware for which you do not require an iLO license. An HPE OneView Advanced w/o iLO license provides support for all server hardware features on the appliance, with the following exceptions:
- Server hardware without an iLO Advanced license does not display utilization data.
- Rack mount servers without an iLO Advanced license cannot access the remote console.
Monitored hardware license
HPE OneView Standard
Provides an HPE OneView Standard license for all monitored server hardware.
This license is automatically selected:
- for the enclosure when adding a monitored enclosure
- for the server when adding a monitored server
- for all ProLiant G6 server blades or G7 BL680c server blades when adding a managed enclosure
HPE OneView does not manage the hardware running with an HPE OneView Standard license.
When you add an enclosure or rack mount server to the appliance, you must specify one of these licenses.
When you add a rack manager, either the HPE OneView Standard license or the HPE OneView Advanced license is automatically applied based on the firmware version installed on the rack manager.
This Cmdlet will assist with the installation of a new HPE OneView Advanced or HPE OneView Advanced without iLO Advanced license key. The type is automatically detected based on the validity of the license key.
