  • 1.  Customer install base for ILMT

    Posted Thu April 04, 2024 03:47 PM

    How can I determine if a client has ILMT installed?  Typically, for IBM software,  I can use IBM Sales Connect.  ISC will show which clients have IBM software deployed.   If the client has ILMT installed, would it show up in this list?  

    Thanks.

    The IBM License Metric Tool is free of charge, so nothing that the customer has to pay for. Therefore you likely do not find it in ISC. 
    But as he has to order ILMT via Passport Advantage, you might find it in FastPass. But this does not mean that he has installed ILMT.

    BTW: 
    ILMT is mandatory for some software deployments but not for all. For container deployments for example, clients would use the IBM License Service instead. 
    You can find more about licensing here:
