I've been told they get it from IBM. The problem I have with that is IBM can't even tell ME what they think I'm supposed to have. Not to mention if you go through certain avenues to get your licenses IBM will NEVER know about them.

But, how do THEY get all this info? David Longo >>> "Mcnutt, Larry E." <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 6/25/2007 2:28 PM >>> Has anyone found a way to get the information for the "Number of Processor Cores" and "Core Type" for your Windows servers? We have a few hundred servers, almost all HP DL3xx variety, but we haven't found any automated way to get this information.

We're in the midst of a D&T audit of IBM licenses and believe me, it makes me more than nuts at how many hours need to be put in just to figure it out!!! I'm not even going to let someone else tell me how many licenses I have in use when they can't even supply answers to basic questions.
