IBM License Metric Tool (ILMT) Implementation and management

Ensure ILMT Compliance with MooseTech 

Deploying IBM License Metric Tool (ILMT) is a contractual requirement for customers running sub-capacity eligible products. Without proper ILMT installation, management, and quarterly reporting, your servers could be measured at full capacity based on your physical servers. This misstep can result in a 5x to 10x increase in IBM license requirements and hefty penalties during audits. 

However, simply installing ILMT isn’t enough. To stay compliant and avoid costly mistakes: 

  • Accurate Configuration: ILMT must be correctly configured to ensure accurate reporting. 

  • Error Resolution: Technical issues and misconfigurations must be promptly addressed. 

  • Proper Bundling: Incorrect software bundling can lead to under or over-reporting of PVU and VPC consumption, distorting your IBM software deployment data. 

At MooseTech, we provide end-to-end ILMT support: 

  • Implementation: We handle ILMT deployment, ensuring it’s error-free and properly configured. 

  • Software Bundling: Our team aligns bundling with your license entitlements, offering a true and accurate picture of your consumption. 

  • Training and Support: We train your team on best practices for efficient agent deployment and daily ILMT management. 

With MooseTech, you’ll have confidence that your ILMT environment is optimized and compliant, saving you from unexpected costs and ensuring peace of mind during audits.
