UMS Licenses and UMS ID in the UMS Web App

In this area, you can review the status of the IGEL Universal Management Suite (UMS) license, review and export the UMS ID, and verify the connection and registration with the IGEL Licensing Portal (ILP).

The license level defines the accessible feature set of the UMS. The license level is shown here (for example, IGEL Enterprise UMS).

For more information, see IGEL Software Licenses for IGEL OS and IGEL UMS .

Menu path: System > Licenses > UMS Licenses

UMS License

At the top, you can see the state of the UMS License. For example, if the license is active, the license level is highlighted in green.

When the license is about to expire, you can see the remaining days until expiration.

Show Licenses

Shows the following information about the UMS license:

License ID: Identification number of the license
License registered on: Point in time when the license was registered in the UMS
Services: Licensed service, e.g. IGEL Enterprise UMS
Category: Shows whether a license is an evaluation license or a license included in a subscription
Expiration Date: End date of the license period

Upload License

Manually selects and uploads the UMS license as a license file. This method can be used when the UMS is not connected to the ILP (for example, in air-gapped scenarios).

UMS ID

The UMS ID is a certificate of your IGEL Universal Management Suite (UMS) server. It is used, for example, for the communication of your UMS with the IGEL Cloud Services and the IGEL License Portal (ILP). The UMS ID consists of a public/private key pair. In the UMS ID area of the UMS Console, you can see details on the UMS ID and export the public key of the UMS ID as a .crt file.

More details about the UMS ID

If registered in the ILP, the UMS ID allows for using Automatic License Deployment (ALD) without the need to handle an ALD Token with each purchase. The registration of the UMS ID is done by uploading the exported certificate file to the ILP, as described in Getting Your Device Licenses Ready for Deployment .

The UMS ID is also used for communication with the IGEL Cloud Services. To enable communication, you need to register the UMS in the IGEL Customer Portal. For details, see Registering the UMS.

The UMS ID is not affected or changed when the UMS database is restored from a backup. The UMS ID does not change if any parameters of the UMS installation are changed, for instance, the hostname or IP address. Thus, it can be transferred to any other server, for example, during migration. For details, see Transferring or Registering the UMS ID.

For the backup options of the UMS ID, see UMS ID Backup in the IGEL Administrator or IGEL UMS Administrator Command-Line Interface.
