DX UIM license use for response monitor remote monitoring probes

Products

• DX Unified Infrastructure Management (Nimsoft / UIM)

Issue/Introduction

Clarification is needed on how for example the ntp_response, or net_connect probes consume the license contract usage and how it is calculated.

If we are deploying ntp_response probe on 100 of Linux server then it will calculate 100 license or how it is?

Environment

DX UIM 23.4.*

Cause

Guidance

Resolution

Each UIM monitoring station FROM which the response time tests are run counts as 1 device. So, if you are monitoring 100 servers from 1 robot, it would count as 1 device.

This is valid for any remote monitoring probe such as net_connect, url_response etc..
