License question

[the_rock]

Hey guys,

Hope someone can confirm this for me. Customer advised me they got their licenses renewed for another year and I can see them in their UC, but, just wondering, is there any way to update this with few clicks from smart update to reflect correct date or we have to go in and license one by one from user center?

Cheers,

Andy

Got a reasonable answer from account services guy...basically, easiest way is get all the licenses downloaded from UC, then add them via smart update (they all go to repository) and then attach them to their perspective targets.

I was hoping there was a little easier way, but guess not : - )

NEVER easy with CP licensing lol

Security Gateways that are connected to the Internet and if the system has relevant consent flags enabled will do it automatically.

Thanks brother. I was really hoping there was somewhere in smart update that would let people do this quick, but not according to Account services. O well, not a big deal, if we run into any issues, we will call in...not too concerned about it : - )

Have a great night!

SmartUpdate which is a legacy tool still allows this, but there is no reason to use it when it is done directly and automatically from the Security Gateway

Right, but thats only to update contracts. We will follow advice from Account services guy, it makes sense to me and see what happens. If any issues, we will contact them.

Cheers and thanks again!
