Viewing the license key usage report

To view the license key usage report:

1. In Kaspersky Security Center Administration Console, select the Administration Server <Server name> node.
2. In the workspace of the node, go to the Reports tab.
3. In the list of report templates, select the License key usage report template and open the report window by double-clicking or by selecting Show report in the context menu.

   This opens a window containing the report that was generated based on the License key usage report template.

The chart in the upper part of the window shows the following license key usage details for each key:

• Number of licensing units on which the key is already in use
• Number of licensing units on which the key can be used according to the licensing restrictions
• Number of licensing units by which the licensing restrictions for the key are exceeded

The license key usage report consists of two tables:

• The summary table contains information about the keys in use
• The detailed information table contains information about SVMs on which keys have been added, or about virtual machines for whose protection the key is used

You can configure the content of fields shown in each table. See Kaspersky Security Center documentation on how to add or remove fields in the report tables.

The summary table contains information about the keys in use:

• License Key – a unique alphanumeric sequence.
• Used as active on. Depending on the key type:
  • For a server or desktop key, this is the number of virtual machines for whose protection the key is used.
  • For a key with a limitation on the number of processor cores – the number of physical processor cores used on all VMware ESXi hypervisors on which SVMs are deployed.
  • For a key with a limitation on the number of processors – the number of physical processors used on all hypervisors whose virtual machines you can protect.
• Used as active for workstations – the number of virtual machines with a desktop operating system protected using the key.
• Used as active for servers – the number of virtual machines with a server operating system protected using the key.
• Used as reserve – the number of SVMs on which the key is added as a reserve key.
• Restriction – depending on the key type:
  • For a server key – the maximum number of virtual machines running a server operating system that you can protect.
  • For a desktop key – the maximum number of virtual machines running a desktop operating system that you can protect.

    For server and desktop keys, the license restriction count includes all virtual machines that were under the protection of the application over the last 30 days, even if those virtual machines are currently powered off. If you do not want a virtual machine to be included in the license restriction count, you can exclude the virtual machine from the protected virtual machines.

  • For a key with a limitation on the number of processor cores – the maximum number of physical processor cores used on all hypervisors whose virtual machines you can protect.
  • For a key with a limitation on the number of processors – the maximum number of physical processors used on all hypervisors whose virtual machines you can protect.
• The license expiration date. The date when your right to use the application activated with your current key expires.
• Use license key until. The key expiration date.
• Additional properties – additional key properties.
• Service info. Service information relating to the key and license.

  The row below contains the following consolidated information:

  • License keys. Total number of keys in use.
  • License keys more than 90% used. Total number of keys that have been used up by more than 90% of the licensing restriction. For example, the restriction is set at 100 virtual machines. A key is used on two SVMs: the first one protects 42 virtual machines and the second one protects 53 virtual machines. The key is therefore 95% used and is included in the number of keys specified in this field.
  • License keys with exceeded limit. Total number of keys that have exceeded the license limit, for example, imposed on the number of protected virtual machines with server or desktop operating systems, or on the number of physical processor cores used on all hypervisors (depending on the key type).

The detailed information table shows information about the SVM on which the key has been added (for keys of all types) and information about the protected virtual machine for which the key is being used (for a server or desktop key):

• Group. The administration group that includes the SVM with the added key.
• Device name. The name of the SVM for which the key was added or the name of the protected virtual machine for which the key is used.
• Application. The name of the application that was activated by adding this key on the SVM.
• Version number. The version number of the application that was activated by adding this key on the SVM.
• Active license key. The key that was added as an active key on the SVM or is used for protection of the virtual machine.
• Reserve license key. The key that was added as the reserve key on the SVM.
• License valid until. The expiration date for using the application with this key.
• Use license key until. The key expiration date.
• IP address. The IP address of the SVM on which the key was added or the IP address of the protected virtual machine.
• Last visible on the network. The date and time when the SVM or virtual machine was last visible on the corporate LAN.
• Last connection to Administration Server. The date and time of the last connection between the SVM and Kaspersky Security Center Administration Server.
• NetBIOS name. The name of the protected virtual machine and the path to it in the virtual infrastructure.
• DNS name. The domain name of the SVM or the name of the protected virtual machine and the path to it in the virtual infrastructure.
• Used. Depending on the type of key:
  • For a server key and desktop key – the number of virtual machines with a server operating system or desktop operating system that are protected by the application.
  • For a key with a limitation on the number of processor cores – the maximum number of physical processor cores used on all hypervisors on which SVMs are deployed.
  • For a key with a limitation on the number of processors – the number of physical processors used on all hypervisors on which SVMs are deployed.
• Used for workstations – the number of virtual machines with a desktop operating system that are under the protection of the application.
• Used for servers – the number of virtual machines with a server operating system that are under the protection of the application.

If both a server key and a desktop key have been added on an SVM, the Kaspersky Security Center key usage report shows the following information about the combination of the server key and desktop key:

• License key, Active license key, Reserve license key – unique combination of a server key and a desktop key.
• Nearest license expiration date – the later of the following two dates: the end date of application usage under the server key, or the end date of application usage under the desktop key.
• Use license key until – the later of the following two key expiration dates: server key expiration date or desktop key expiration date.
• Used as active on – the total number of virtual machines with server operating systems and desktop operating systems protected using the key.
• Restriction – the sum of the following values: the maximum number of protected virtual machines with desktop operating systems plus the maximum number of protected virtual machines with server operating systems.
• Used – the total number of virtual machines with server operating systems and desktop operating systems that are protected by the application.
