The license assigned does not match the type specified

Symptom

Server hardware is assigned a license that is different from the one specified when it was added to the appliance.

Solution 1

Cause

The server hardware has an embedded license.

Action

Embedded licenses override the license policy or type specified when the enclosure or rack server was added. Server hardware with an existing, permanent iLO Advanced license will be assigned an HPE OneView Advanced w/o iLO license. For more information, see About licensing.

Solution 2

Cause

A server that was previously managed by the appliance has been added again.

Action

If a server was previously managed by the appliance and had an HPE OneView Advanced license applied, it will be assigned that same license when it is added, regardless of the license type specified.
