CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 7
Workstation
A Workstation license can be assigned to any type of device, be it a Windows or non-Windows
system. For example, a Linux box which is discovered as a node and which does not support any
of the infrastructure services will be assigned a Workstation license. Similarly, a desktop
Windows system will be assigned a Workstation license.
A workstation device is eligible for the following functionality:
• Capability scans once every 24 hours for new services and/or inventory information
You can transition a device with a Workstation license to any of the following licensed states:
• Server (if the device is a Windows system which supports WMI)
• Infrastructure (if the device is a node)
• Promoted Workstation
• Unmanaged
Promoted Workstation
Promoted Workstation licenses provide a mechanism for you to obtain additional polling and
performance data from a troublesome device on a temporary basis without taking up a Server or
Infrastructure license. The only way for a device to be assigned a Promoted Workstation license
is to assign the license through the web user interface. There are a total of five promoted
workstation licenses available with a CC-NOC appliance.
A promoted workstation device is eligible for the following functionality:
• Capability scans once every 24 hours for new services and/or inventory information
• Service availability polling
• SNMP performance data collection
• Windows performance data collection
• SNMP performance thresholding
• Windows performance thresholding
You can transition a device with a Promoted Workstation license to any of the following licensed
states:
• Workstation
• Server (if the device is a Windows system which supports WMI)
• Infrastructure (if the device is a node)
• Unmanaged
