The Password Manager license specifies the maximum number of user accounts enabled for management by Password Manager in all managed domains. When launching the Administration site, Password Manager counts the actual number of user accounts, and compares it with the maximum number specified by the license. If the actual number exceeds the maximum licensed number, a license violation occurs. A warning message is displayed on every connection to the Administration site of Password Manager.
In the event of a license violation, you have the following options:
Exclude a number of user accounts from the user accounts managed by Password Manager to bring your license count in line with the licensed value and reconnect to the Administration site to recalculate the license number.
Remove one or more managed domain to decrease the number of managed user accounts.
Purchase a new license with a greater number of user accounts, and then update your license using the instructions provided later in this section.
Note that the following items are not limited by the license:
The number of computers connected to the Administration, Self-Service, and Helpdesk sites of Password Manager.
The number of Password Manager instances in a large enterprise, Password Manager can be installed on multiple computers for enhanced performance and fault tolerance.
The license is initially installed when you install the Password Manager:
Some license types may include counters for managed persons and managed external persons along with a counter for user accounts. Managed persons are users that have several accounts; for example, one managed person can have three user accounts. Managed external persons are external or temporary employees. The same license violation policy is applied to managed persons and managed external persons as to user accounts. To specify these user groups, use the corresponding license scopes after you install Password Manager.
Note, that such scopes are available only if your license includes managed persons and managed external persons.
