Create Traditional Licensing Report Wizard

The Create Traditional Licensing Report Wizard consists of the following panels:

Data Collection
Export or Email Report Options

The Data Collection panel shows the following options:

Collect data and run report for all configured master servers

Select this option if you want to run the traditional license report for all the master servers that are configured on the OpsCenter console.

When you select this option, the panel shows the number of configured master servers. This is the number of master servers that are currently added to the OpsCenter console.

The panel also displays the number and details of master servers for which the prerequisite status is Incomplete (or not successful) in a table. The table only shows those master servers that did not pass the prerequisite check.

Click the link under the Prerequisite Status column to know and troubleshoot the issue. Note that the master servers for which the Prerequisite Status is Incomplete are not included in the traditional licensing report.

Collect data and run report for specific master servers

Select this option if you want to run the traditional license report for only specific master servers.

When you select this option, you can view a table underneath that shows the available master servers by default. From the list of available master servers, you can select the master servers for which you want to run the traditional licensing report. You must select at least one master server.

Once you select the master servers from the list of available master servers, click Selected Master Servers tab to view details for the selected master servers.

A table in the middle of the Data Collection panel displays the following columns:

Master Server:	This column displays the name of master servers for which the report is generated. If you select Collect data and run report for all configured master servers, this column displays only those master servers for which the prerequisite status is incomplete.
Licensing Data Collection Status	This column displays the status of traditional licensing data collection for the specific master server.
Last Licensing Data Collection Date	This column displays the date and time when the last licensing data was collected. The column shows a blank when the data collection fails.
Exceptions	This column displays the reason for data collection failure.
Prerequisites Status	This column displays a link named Incomplete when one or more of the prerequisites are not met. Click the link to know the details about the prerequisites that need to be completed for each master server. When the prerequisite check is successful, a green checkmark appears in this column. The following prerequisites are checked for each master server: Is an Agent configured for data collection? Is the Enable Traditional License Deployment Data Collection option checked? Did you enter a user name or password to access the master server? Besides the prerequisites that are listed above, there are other prerequisites that must be satisfied. More information about all the prerequisites is available. See Prerequisites and data collection for a traditional licensing report.

In the Export or Email Report Options panel, you must specify email recipients and optionally can choose to export the report. It is mandatory that you email the report so that you have the report for future reference.

The Export or Email Report Options panel displays the following options:

To, CC, or BCC fields	Enter the recipients email address in these fields. The recipients receive emails when the report generation is complete.
Subject	This field displays the default text Traditional Licensing Report. You can change the subject line if required.
Message	Enter a message in this field.
Export report	Select this option to export report to INSTALL_PATH\server\export\NDAReportExport directory on Windows and INSTALL_PATH/SYMCOpsCenterServer/export/NDAReportExport directory on UNIX. You can change the export location from Settings > Configuration > Report Export Location.
