Create and View a Snapshot License Report
A snapshot report captures the current state of a landscape. You can generate a snapshot license report by license key or by license manifest.
A snapshot report by license key contains information about all installed product instances and groups them based on license key. The report also counts the server cores and compares their total with the number of license keys. The summary section of the report shows whether the customer landscape matches the available licenses.
A snapshot report by license manifest contains information about all installed product instances based on a license manifest file that contains all active licenses for a customer. Software AG issues a separate license manifest for each location of your organization. The report provides detailed information for each installed product, including the type of product installation, the number of installed and running product instances, the server processor types, and the type of license for the product. The report also counts the overall number of server cores and compares their total with the number of licensed products in the license manifest. The summary section of the report shows whether the customer landscape matches the available licenses, and the number of products that match or do not match the licenses.
