Licensing IBM software products on the basis of "SubCapacity" can save licensing costs to a significant extent. However, "SubCapacity" is also subject to complex documentation obligations, in particular through the IBM License Metric Tool (ILMT).

The fact that the ILMT is not easy to manage even for experienced licensing experts is reflected time and again in high audit demands in which "Full" instead of "SubCapacity" is invoiced.

This course helps you to master the ILMT safely and thus also indirectly reduces unwanted audit risks.
- How exactly is "SubCapacity" calculated?
- What components does the ILMT consist of - and how do they act together?
- What do I have to consider when classifying software?
- How do I create the necessary reports and what exactly do they contain?

In our 1-day training, exactly these questions (and more) are discussed. An ILMT test environment serves as an illustrative tool to learn or deepen the use of the tool.
