With the device-based licensing model for OpManager Nexus, you can now add monitors from Applications Manager as devices in OpManager Nexus using the SAM bundle. You can allocate devices in the SAM bundle in the form of Servers, Applications, and Internet Services (URLs and Web Services).
License Model for SAM Bundle from OpManager Nexus version 128628 & above
Starting with OpManager Nexus version 128628, the consumed license count is calculated as follows:
- Each Server consumes 1 license
- Each Application consumes 1 license
- Every 3 Internet Services together consume 1 license
Versions from which the latest calculation is considered
- OPM Version - 128628
- APM Version - 178100
License calculation formula = (No. of Servers) + (No. of Applications) + (No. of Internet Services ÷ 3)
Example calculation:
Below is a sample license calculation. The table outlines the total device count in each category and demonstrates how the final license consumption is derived.
| Servers | Applications | Internet Services | Calculation | License count |
|---|
| 20 | 20 | 30 | 20 + 20 + (30 ÷ 3) | 50 |
| 20 | 40 | 120 | 20 + 40 + (120 ÷ 3) | 100 |
| 50 | 50 | 150 | 50 + 50 + (150 ÷ 3) | 150

- Perpetual License Holders - The existing license model remains unchanged and continues to use the Old SAM model and is not affected by this update until further notice.
