Sentinel RMS Enforcement - License Models
Sentinel EMS supports Sentinel RMS as the default enforcement technology. Sentinel Cloud Licensing (SCL) is an add-on for Sentinel RMS and is used in conjunction with Sentinel EMS to support leased and cloud served licenses. Sentinel EMS can be used with or without the SCL Add-on for RMS.
This section lists the Sentinel RMS license models and attributes supported in Sentinel EMS. The attributes are listed in order of their groups. The default values for the attributes are provided in a separate column. For more details on the meaning and usage of these license models and attributes refer to the Sentinel RMS Documentation provided with the Sentinel RMS SDK.
NOTE Sentinel RMS 8.5.0 and later provides support for the "Aggregate" license model. In Sentinel EMS, this requires setting the value of the attribute Enforce License Exclusive to "Aggregate".
Permissions
For user and end user Permissions, the values in the table have the following meanings:
>None: These attributes are displayed while defining license models. These are not displayed while copying a license model, activating the product, or accessing the Entitlement page. These values are fixed and cannot be changed after a license model is defined.
>Read: These attributes are displayed, but the user cannot change them (for example, lock criteria).
>Write: These attributes require vendor user input.
Attribute Groups
Each of the Sentinel RMS license models may contain one or more of the following attribute groups.
For a comparative snapshot of the attributes supported by each license model, see Sentinel RMS SDK License Models and Their Attributes.
