Satellite Licenses
Applies To: Opalis 6.3
A satellite license is a license that enables policies to interact with remote computers. The objects that require a satellite license to run usually include a Computer field. Computer fields enable you to add both local and remote computer names.
Satellite licenses are consumed as soon as a policy that requires them is triggered. Opalis Integration Server will assign satellite licenses to policies until there are no more left to assign. If there are no more satellite licenses available, the policy will not run until you perform the following procedure to make the satellite licenses available or until you purchase additional licenses.
See Microsoft System Center Opalis (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=200971) for information about purchasing licenses.
