NOTE: Selected target systems not yet licensed or licensed using a time-limited license appear in the
systems list on the license validation page. This page reappears, displaying the updated licensing
status, each time a license is added or applied to a system. Time-limited licenses can be changed to
permanent licenses at this time by selecting the node and applying a permanent license. When all
selected target systems are licensed, the process moves to the next step of the selected operation. If
all target systems initially selected for the task are licensed with permanent licenses, the license
validation page does not appear.

key and a new table appears. Systems assigned to that key, details about the system, and the status
of the key on that system appear.

The HP SIM License Manager can be used to add Vulnerability and Patch Management Pack licenses
