How do you know the number of BMC Patrol licenses are deployed?
BMC Patrol is licensed by number of CPUs.
BMC Patrol product will be installed in a Server that it will have several CPUs.
Them we will have BMC Atrium CMDB relationship:- BMC Patrol product = BMC_PRODUCT- This Product will be installed in a Server = BMC_ComputerSystem- This Server will have several CPUs = BMC_PROCESSOR
Example:- Server A with BMC Patrol installed and 2 CPUs- Server B with BMC Patrol installed and 1 CPU
Total of BMC Patrol licenses deployed = 3
