Creates a license configuration

Description

Creates a license configuration.

A license configuration is an abstraction of a customer license agreement that can be consumed and enforced by License Manager. Components include specifications for the license type (licensing by instance, socket, CPU, or vCPU), allowed tenancy (shared tenancy, Dedicated Instance, Dedicated Host, or all of these), license affinity to host (how long a license must be associated with a host), and the number of licenses purchased and used.

Usage

licensemanager_create_license_configuration(Name, Description,
  LicenseCountingType, LicenseCount, LicenseCountHardLimit, LicenseRules,
  Tags, DisassociateWhenNotFound, ProductInformationList, LicenseExpiry)

Arguments

  • Name

    [required] Name of the license configuration.

  • Description

    Description of the license configuration.

  • LicenseCountingType

    [required] Dimension used to track the license inventory.

  • LicenseCount

    Number of licenses managed by the license configuration.

  • LicenseCountHardLimit

    Indicates whether hard or soft license enforcement is used. Exceeding a hard limit blocks the launch of new instances.

  • LicenseRules

    License rules. The syntax is #name=value (for example, #allowedTenancy=EC2-DedicatedHost). The available rules vary by dimension, as follows.

    • Cores dimension: allowedTenancy | licenseAffinityToHost | maximumCores | minimumCores
    • Instances dimension: allowedTenancy | maximumVcpus | minimumVcpus
    • Sockets dimension: allowedTenancy | licenseAffinityToHost | maximumSockets | minimumSockets
    • vCPUs dimension: allowedTenancy | honorVcpuOptimization | maximumVcpus | minimumVcpus

    The unit for licenseAffinityToHost is days and the range is 1 to 180. The possible values for allowedTenancy are EC2-Default, EC2-DedicatedHost, and EC2-DedicatedInstance. The possible values for honorVcpuOptimization are True and False.

  • Tags

    Tags to add to the license configuration.

  • DisassociateWhenNotFound

    When true, disassociates a resource when software is uninstalled.

  • ProductInformationList

    Product information.

  • LicenseExpiry

    License configuration expiry.

  LicenseConfigurationArn = "string"
