HPE OneView license types

The following types of licenses are available for managing or monitoring server hardware in HPE OneView. HPE OneView licenses are not transferable from one server to another server. Refer to the Additional License Authorizations for HPE OneView (ALA) document for details.

  • Managed hardware licenses
HPE OneView Advanced

Provides an HPE OneView Advanced license and an iLO Advanced license.

This license is intended for server hardware and enclosures you want to manage with HPE OneView.

HPE OneView Advanced w/o iLO

Provides an HPE OneView Advanced license only.

This license is intended for server hardware you want to manage with HPE OneView. This license is for servers with iLO that is already licensed, or server hardware for which you do not require an iLO license.

An HPE OneView Advanced w/o iLO license supports all server hardware features on the appliance, with the following exceptions:

  • Server hardware without an iLO Advanced license does not display utilization data.

  • Rack mount servers without an iLO Advanced license cannot access the remote console.

For examples, see Licensing scenarios.

  • Monitored hardware license
HPE OneView Standard

Provides an HPE OneView Standard license for all monitored server hardware.

This license is automatically selected:

  • For the enclosure when adding a monitored enclosure

  • For the server when adding a monitored server

  • For all HPE ProLiant G6 server blades or HPE ProLiant BL680c G7 server blades when adding a managed enclosure

HPE OneView does not manage the hardware running with an HPE OneView Standard license.

When you add a managed enclosure or rack mount server to the appliance, you must specify the type of license to use. For examples, see Licensing scenarios.

When you add a rack manager, either the HPE OneView Standard license or the HPE OneView Advanced license is automatically applied based on the firmware version installed on the rack manager.

Support

All HPE OneView Advanced licenses include three years of support.  HPE OneView Standard does not include support.  For HPE OneView Standard support you need to purchase the SKU K6F98AAE.
