License Advisor Sender

License Sender is a component of License Advisor that collects the license usage data from the cluster, aggregates and delivers this data to License Advisor.

Deploying License Advisor Sender

Deploy and configure License Sender for all clusters where IBM Cloud Pak solutions are deployed and on a virtual machine with access to IBM® License Metric Tool. This setup guarantees that License Advisor gives you an overview of your license usage in cloud as well as hybrid environments.
