“I’m not sure where the User Add-On License came from” That’s what BMC labeled it, when they sent the quote to us.
We are running SRM 2.2, with Submitter mode locked. I started going through our list of applied licenses (Form: AR System Administration: Add or Remove Licenses) And don’t even see it listed there either, yet we are using SRM just fine.

Matt, Technically, speaking it is not required as a read license will suffice if the server is set with Submitter Mode = Locked. That was the case with SRM 2.x, but it should carry over to the 7.x version as well since it uses the same foundation (CAI) for request creation. I’m not sure where the User Add-On License came from but any enlightenment would be appreciated. -Eric ________________________________ From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG] On Behalf Of Matthew Perrault Sent: Wednesday, January 26, 2011 10:10 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: License Question... All, Currently we are paying for: BMC Remedy Self Service − User Add−On License According to BMC they state it is needed by end users to submit a request? But That doesn’t make sense. All you need to submit a request is to have a Read LICENSE, and Service Request User permissions. Now, I’ve done some searching on the web (couldn’t find anything in the documentation…) and apparently this “BMC Remedy Self Service” LICENSE is needed by the Request System. But How is it needed and Why is it needed? We have the BMC:SR Mgmt Application license, is this the same thing? Then I take a look at the quantity of these Licenses that we have, and they seem either WAY too low, or WAY too high. Any help would be appreciated, Thanks Matt P.
