Licensing

License auditing in IBM Storage® Protect Plus is enabled by default to determine if the current usage is within license entitlement levels and to prevent potential license violations.

IBM Storage Protect Plus generates entitlement audit logs as IBM® Software License Metric Tag (.slmtag) files. IBM® License Metric Tool (ILMT) is then used to translate the file and generate License Consumption Reports. Use the information in this section to interpret your .slmtag files.
