⁸⁹ System Center Server Management Suite Enterprise

System Center Server Management Suite Enterprise is versionless and product use rights are determined by the status of System Center Server Management Suite Enterprise Software Assurance coverage.  If coverage lapses, access rights under perpetual licenses are determined based on the product use rights in effect prior to the lapse in coverage. 

As a one-time exception in connection with the transition of SMSE* from a suite that allows for the management of any number of OSEs on a licensed device to a suite that allows for the management of up to four OSEs on a licensed device, we are granting Select, Enterprise, Open License, Open Value, and Campus and School customers with active Software Assurance on SMSE as of July 1, 2009 the following:

• 
  Four complimentary SMSD licenses for each qualifying SMSE license with active Software Assurance the customer has as of July 1, 2009. Each set of four granted SMSD licenses must be assigned to a single device, and may not be separated for use on two or more devices.
  

Any licenses granted under this offer are subject to the following limitation: Each set of granted SMSD licenses must be assigned to a single device.

Any licenses granted under this offer include Software Assurance Coverage that terminates when coverage on the corresponding qualifying licenses expires. Upon expiration of the Software Assurance coverage customers may renew their Software Assurance under one of the following options:

• 
  Customers may renew coverage for their original SMSE license. The management rights under the SMSE Software Assurance coverage will be determined by the rights applicable to the SMSE at the time of renewal. Upon renewal of the original SMSE license, the customer forfeits the rights to the four complimentary SMSD licenses.
  

• 
  Customers may renew coverage for the complimentary SMSD licenses:
  

1. 
   Customers may renew coverage for all SMSD licenses in the set of four complimentary SMSD licenses granted under this offer. Under this option, the requirement to assign the set of four licenses to a single device is waived.
   
2. 
   Customers renewing their Software Assurance before July 1st, 2011 may renew coverage for two licenses in the set of four complimentary SMSD licenses granted under this offering. If they do so, they will be deemed to have renewed coverage for the four SMSD licenses within the same set. Under this option, the requirement to assign the set of four licenses to a single device will continue to apply upon renewal. In the subsequent Software Assurance renewal, customers may renew coverage for the SMSD licenses they need within each set of four complimentary SMSD licenses. At that time, different from the first renewal, any SMSD license for which coverage is not renewed will not continue to have Software Assurance coverage. The requirement to assign a set of four complimentary SMSD licenses to a single device is waived upon this subsequent renewal only if the coverage for all four SMSD licenses is renewed.
   

Any time prior to the first Software Assurance renewal after this grant, customers may remove the requirement that each set of granted SMSD licenses be assigned to a single device. They can do so by purchasing Software Assurance coverage for two SMSD licenses within a given set of four complimentary SMSD licenses.

Customers’ right to use the software under the complimentary SMSD licenses is evidenced by this product condition note and evidence of their corresponding qualifying licenses. A customer’s use of the software under this offer will be subject to the terms and conditions of its license agreement and the product use rights for the software. The right to use the software under the complimentary licenses expires when the right to use software under the qualifying licenses expires. Customers may not transfer the licenses granted under this offer separately from the corresponding qualifying licenses.
