CA 1 Tape Management

Published: March 27, 2017

CA 1 Tape Management provides for automated management, control and protection of z/OS tape data sets and volumes, integrating with the latest automated tape libraries and robotics systems, both virtual and real.

Licensing Model

CA 1 Tape Management is licensed by the number of MIPS or MSU or CPU as set forth on the Order Form.

Supporting licensing information

When the Authorized Use Limitation is “CPU” or “Processor”, the calculation with respect to the number of CPUs on

an individual server is determined as follows:

1. For non-virtual server environments, for any server with applications monitored by the CA Software with

single CPUs (including, for the avoidance of doubt, eight-core CPUs), count the number of CPUs. For any

server with applications monitored by the CA Software with greater than dual-core CPUs, count all cores of

the CPUs. Divide the number of cores by eight (8) and round up to the next whole number.

2. For virtual server environments, for any server with single CPUs (including, for the avoidance of doubt,

eight-core CPUs), count the number of CPUs. For any server with greater than eight-core CPUs, count all

cores of the CPUs. Divide the number of cores by eight (8) and round up to the next whole number.

Determine the maximum percentage of the server CPU capacity that is allocated by the Virtual Machine

Technology to any operating system instance containing one or more applications monitored by the CA

Software, and multiply this percentage by the number of CPUs. Multiply the resulting number by one and a

half (1.5X) and round up to the next whole number.

3. For mixed server environments, for each server perform the calculations for CPUs as set forth above in

subparagraphs (1) and (2) and add these amounts together to determine the aggregate number of CPUs.

"MIPS" means the aggregate computing power (expressed in millions of instructions per second and rounded to the

next even multiple of 10) of all computers (1) located at the Customer Sites, or (2) which can remotely access such

computers, irrespective of the platform designation of the hardware or operating systems, provided that such

remote computer is capable of accessing, using, executing or benefiting from the CA Software. MIPS shall be

calculated by reference to CA's published schedules of the MIPS capacity of processors. In the event that any

particular processor is not accounted for on CA's schedule, the manufacturer's published specification of MIPS

capacity shall control.

“MSU” means millions of service units; and “MSU Capacity” shall mean the aggregate computing power (expressed

in millions of service units rounded to the next even multiple of 10) in accordance with the ratings given by Gartner,

Inc. of all computers located at the Customer Location stated on the Order Form or which can remotely access such

computers, irrespective of the platform designations of the hardware or operating systems, provided that such

computer is capable of accessing, using, executing or benefiting from the CA Software subject to the aggregate MSU

capacity not exceeding the Licensed MSU Capacity.
