IT33756: CLARIFICATION NEEDED ABOUT ILMT (IBM LICENSE METRIC TOOL) INTEGRATION

APAR status

• Closed as documentation error.

Error description

• IBM License Metric Tool (ILMT) is used to help determine
  whether your system environment is compliant with licensing
  requirements.
  IBM Spectrum Protect Plus generates entitlement
  audit logs as IBM Software License Metric Tag(.slmtag)
  files.
  However, documentation needs to make clear that
  currently there is no supported method to transmit and feed the
  ILMT server with that information.
  
  This means also it is not supported to install the ILMT (Big
  Fix) agent on any host member of the Spectrum Protect Plus
  environment.
  
  IBM Spectrum Protect Versions Affected:
  IBM Spectrum Protect Plus 10.1.x
  
  Initial Impact: Low
  
  Additional Keywords: SPP, SPPLUS, TS003810996, ILMT, slmtag,
  licensing, license
