Entitlement
Version 6
All
An Inventory scan discovers 26 installations of Version 6. The 26 installations belong to 22 users; 21
users are associated with one installation each, and 1 user is associated with 5 installations.
All 15 Per-User licenses are consumed, accounting for 19 of the installations (1 user with 5
installations and 14 users with 1 installation). The installations for users 16 through 22 cannot
consume a license because there are no more licenses available, so the remaining 7 installations
associated with those users fall through to the All entitlement. Because the All entitlement's licenses
also cover Product A Version 6, the installations consume 7 of the 40 licenses for that entitlement.
If the All entitlement did not exist, the 7 installations would remain unresolved and Version 6 would
be listed in the Unresolved Installations panel.
There are several solutions to this situation, including the following:
Add 7 additional licenses to the Version 6 entitlement to cover the installations.
Create a Per-Installation entitlement that also covers Product A Version 6. User-based
entitlements (Per-User and Per-Named User) and machine-based entitlements (OEM and
Machine) are evaluated first, then any Per-Installation entitlements are checked. In this
situation, the installation would be covered by the Per-Installation entitlement.
Example 3
Product A includes the following entitlement:
Entitlement
Version 6
An Inventory scan discovers 5 installations of Product A Version 6 on Machine1 through Machine5.
The installations on Machine4 and Machine5 are reported as unresolved installations because the
two machines are not covered by the Version 6 entitlement.
There are several solutions to this situation, including the following:
Modify the Version 6 entitlement so that it covers Machine4 and Machine5.
Create a Per-Installation entitlement that also covers Product A Version 6. Machine-based
entitlements (OEM and Machine) and user-based entitlements (Per-User and Per-Named User)
are evaluated first, then any Per-Installation entitlements are checked. In this situation, the two
installations would be covered by the Per-Installation entitlement.
