Licensing virtual machine hosts
The procedure to license virtual machine hosts is not the same as licensing other servers. However,
as a prerequisite, the virtual machine host must be licensed in HP Insight Control. The VM Host
cannot be monitored for Performance Management if it is not licensed and managed in VMM.
Virtual machine guests do not have any license for Performance Management.
For more information about licensing Insight Control virtual machine management, see the Insight
Control virtual machine management documentation.
