EcoStruxure BMS uses a license model that allows scalable pricing. An EcoStruxure BMS can be tailored with the features and size that is required by that solution. When setting up a new EcoStruxure BMS, consider the size, the extra features required, and the number of licenses to accommodate the size and features. The license policy lets you make an initial investment that corresponds to the required capacity and functionality at the beginning of the project and then allows for further investment in the future to expand the capacity or functionality.
The number of clients and engineering tools used in the system are licensed individually.
Regardless of protocol, any field bus device that is hosted by an EcoStruxure Building Operation Enterprise Server and that can be configured without the use of some legacy tool requires a license to be available.
Client and engineering tool licenses are available for WorkStation, WorkStation Pro, WebStation, and all EcoStruxure Building Operation Editors. WorkStation, WorkStation Pro, WebStation, and all EcoStruxure Building Operation Editors are licensed individually.
All field bus devices hosted by an EcoStruxure Building Operation Enterprise Server need licenses.

In order to use SNMP notifications on an EcoStruxure BMS server, the system requires a SNMP license for each server. SNMP licenses are also available from the system license pool. The licensing system compares the amount of EcoStruxure BMS servers using SNMP with the available SNMP licenses and determines if there is a license violation .
SNMP licenses are inherited.

Web Services is a way to translate information in XML format so that it can be understood by EcoStruxure BMS servers and displayed in WorkStation. When you create a Web Service interface, you can add XML elements from the server providing the Web Service. The XML elements are then translated into values in an EcoStruxure BMS server.
Web Services license enforcement will occur in a future release of EcoStruxure Building Operation. The lack of current enforcement does not remove the requirement of license purchase to receive support.

License enforcement is the process of checking whether a software application has a valid license available to it at runtime. In the EcoStruxure BMS, this is accomplished by a license violation bar in WorkStation and WebStation if you do not have enough licenses.
If a client, such as WorkStation or one of the editors, attempts to start and cannot locate an available license, the client does not start.

A license that is dedicated to a specific operation is permanent. This include Enterprise Server licenses and all client licenses.
