Report showing products identified that do not have a license.

Products without a License

Another important report. Products identified that do not have a license are a cause for concern and investigation. The reason for this could be that the products have been installed as a bundle, but only some are licensed.

Another cause could be that you are running licensed software without a valid license. Further investigation is needed.

SUBCAP In this field you will see:
  • Reference based - Applies to z/Architecture IPLA products whose value is based on the value of another product. For example, a reference base Db2® tool would be priced based on the license capacity of Db2®. In this case, Db2® is the parent product of the Db2® tool. reference base IPLA products do not appear on the sub-capacity report because the parent products already appear on the report.
  • z/OS®-based – Applies to IPLA products that run under z/OS® and provide value to the particular machine where the product is used. These products are priced based on the license capacity of z/OS® on the CPC where the product is used. z/OS®-based IPLA products do not appear on the sub-capacity report because z/OS® already appears on the report.
  • Execution based - Applies to z/Architecture IPLA products whose value is based on the processing power of the LPAR in which they run. These products are priced based on the utilization capacity of the LPARs in which they run. Execution-based IPLA products appear on the sub-capacity report if those products execute on a CPC where you run the SCRT.
  • Not eligible or blank
These values only apply to IPLA products that have a Y.
