Add a License

On the License and Usage page, you see the license usage count and view the license details by clicking the individual link on each entity count. You can also add and change the license type.
VMware Aria Operations for Networks
 now supports co-existence of Universal CPU subscription and Per Core Universal subscription. You can purchase Per Core Universal subscription for expansion while your Universal CPU subscription is still active. The usage is displayed in cores.
When Universal CPU and Per Core subscriptions co-exist , all usage will be displayed in terms of cores with a conversion ratio of 1 CPU = 32 cores. For example, If you have 1000 sockets and purchase 1600 cores for expansion, then:
Total licenses = 1000 * 32 + 1600 = 32000 +1600 = 33,600 cores
1 Physical device = 16 cores, so physical devices entitlement is calculated as follows:
Physical devices entitlement = 33600 /16 = 2100
