The CA License Management Program (CA LMP) tracks licensed software in a standardized and automated way. CA LMP reports on activities that are related to the license, usage, and financials of CA Technologies products.
CA Chorus and its disciplines are licensed with an LMP key. You acquire the LMP key with one of the following methods:
During startup, CA Chorus Infrastructure Management license validation is performed by calling the CA LMP service of the CAIRIM component. CAIRIM is a component of CA Common Services for z/OS. The CAIRIM component verifies the product LMP keys. When a CA Chorus user logs in, the CA Chorus server makes LMP checks against the appropriate product keys. For example, if CA Chorus for Storage Management and CA Chorus Infrastructure Management are installed, the LMP check is performed for both disciplines, and the seat count for these disciplines is increased.
To report on and to verify compliance with CA Technologies product seat license concurrent usage, SMF type 89 records are collected over the required reporting period. A registered software usage report can be produced from the SMF type 89 records using the IBM z/OS product usage report utility program, IFAURP. The IFAURP report utility supports specification of a software vendor such that only CA products are included in the generated reports. Use member CHSMFRPT in your_chorus_hlq.CETJJCL to extract SMF type 89 records from the installation SMF collection data sets. After submission, this job sorts the extracted records and produces the software usage reports.
Note: For more information about CA LMP, CAIRIM, and generating software product registration reports, see the CA Common Services for z/OS documentation.
