4.0 Metering Network and Product Usage

IMPORTANT:NetWare 6.5 SP8 includes MLA licenses which have replaced regular server license certificates and user licenses. For more information, see Section 1.1, NetWare 6.5 SP8 Includes MLA License Files.

From Novell® iManager, you can view NetWare® usage information from the NetWare Product Usage task. If a product is meter enabled, you can also view usage information about that product. The Metering task generates a statistic or a report of the number of users that logged in to the network over a specified period of time. If you are managing license agreement contracts, you might find this tool helpful as you prepare for audits.

NOTE:Metering information is available only on NetWare 6 servers running NetWare 6 support Pack 3 or later and NetWare 6.5 SP8 servers.
