Introduction
SETTING THE STAGE – THE CA SOFTWARE ASSET MANAGER “A” MODEL
7 © 2015 CA. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.@CAWORLD #CAWORLD
CA Software Asset Manager (CA SAM) uses an “Entitlement Centric” approach for Compliance activities.
Entitlement Centric solutions work differently than Asset Centric solution to address Software License Management outcomes:
– Asset Centric Solutions consider desktops or servers to determine what software is installed and how many licenses required to cover these installations?
– Entitlement Centric Solutions: consider purchased licenses and their associated product use rights to determine how to calculate the number of licenses required cover software usage.
Auditors focuses on your legal obligations for “documented” license purchases to ascertain compliance; hence, an Entitlement Centric approach appropriate.
License Management Asset Centric vs. Entitlement Centric

How do I find out what I am licensed for and if there are restrictions for use of a License?
How does CA SAM support these activities?
There are many different ways to procure licenses:
– All procurement methods provide details of your use rights and restrictions within the documents.
– Extracting this information (data) is addressed through a combination of review, analysis and reporting of the procurement documents.
– CA SAM is the central repository to manage this information enabling you to identify purchased licenses and their associated entitlements and restrictions.
License Inventory License Procurement

The next step in identifying License Inventory is to complete Receiving Inspection activities.
Receiving inspection is where the procurement data is verified against the information in the Master Catalog.
– The Master Catalog is the central repository that provides information required to assist in the correct identification of licenses purchased.
– The Master Catalog knows what Product Use Rights (PUR’s) are associated with each License either by referring to the manufacturer standards or to extended master catalog records that have been created to reflect specific customer negotiated terms.
– The mapping or reconciliation performed through the receiving inspection process provides you with an Effective License Inventory of the Product Use Rights (PUR’s) that are linked to the Licenses.
License Inventory Receiving Inspection

In addition to understanding the provisions of your Licenses, it is essential to include relevant Contract terms in your analysis.
These terms are captured through manual Contract review & analysis to identify relevant information (data elements) and entry into a central repository.
CA SAM provides different methods for loading Contract data:
– Standard import templates for all relevant tables.
– Manual entry can also be performance through the user interface.
CA Technologies also provides a Contract Import Template to facilitate data loads.
License Inventory Loading Contract Data
11 © 2015 CA. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.@CAWORLD #CAWORLD
Once License/Entitlement information has been compiled it should be loaded into CA SAM:
CA SAM provides for different methods of loading License/Entitlement data:
– Loading data from reseller or supplier reports can be done for software titles purchased via these organizations.
– An interface (Connector) can be built into your centralized procurement system to capture data from within
– Manual entry can also be performance through the user interface.
CA Technologies also provides a Contract Import Template to facilitate data loads.
License Inventory Loading License Entitlement Data
12 © 2015 CA. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.@CAWORLD #CAWORLD
Once the License is recognized from the
procurement information, it is forwarded to the
License Clearing function.
License Clearing captures Product Use Rights,
Maintenance Rights, Language, Version, etc.
Relevant information is linked to the License
purchase and forwarded to your effective License
inventory.
Once we have our effective License Inventory, we
can answer questions and take action.
License Inventory Effective License Inventory Actions

To create a License Balance you must focus not only on your Licenses but also on software usage.
Your Software Inventory Manager will load discovery data into CA SAM.
The raw data from your discovery tools must be mapped to licensable products (using the Master Catalog).
The result is a Software Inventory showing which products are installed on which machines or used by which users.
In an asset centric solution it usually is the last step, you compare your software installations to your licenses however, this is not the case for an entitlement centric approach.
With CA SAM Software Inventory is not the last step.
Software Inventory Not Your Last Step
14 © 2015 CA. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.@CAWORLD #CAWORLD
As previously mentioned, in an Entitlement Centric approach the Software Inventory is not where License Management ends.
Entitlement Centric does not need to know what or how many installations you have, it needs to know how many Licenses you need to cover the number of installations.
To enable the Entitlement Centric approach CA SAM has a unique function based on the Master Catalog – Metric Engines – which facilitates this calculation.
Software Inventory Metric Engines
15 © 2015 CA. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.@CAWORLD #CAWORLD
A Metric Engine calculates “Effective License Demand” based on the metric assigned to the license product through data loading and configuration activities.
Metric Engines are a set of algorithms and rules built to calculate Effective Demand by comparing all data entered into CA SAM to enable the compliance calculation, including:
– Software Inventory
– Master Data
– Contract Data
– License/Entitlement Data
Software Inventory Effective Demand
16 © 2015 CA. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.@CAWORLD #CAWORLD
Metric Engines are designed to manage for complex metrics found in server environments, for example:
– IBM PVU or Oracle CPU metrics that tie to physical attributes of a device on which the software is installed to calculate consumption.
– Virtualized Environments
– Citrix Environments
Software Inventory Effective Demand
17 © 2015 CA. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.@CAWORLD #CAWORLD
Complex algorithms required to calculate these metrics are contained within the Master Catalog.
The metrics define the parameters for how to calculate demand:
– IBM WebSphere installations will be detected via the Master Catalog and the metric in the Master Catalog will control a calculation for the number of Licenses required to cover the installation(s).
This means it is not the installation, but the calculated “demand” that is compared to the available Licenses during balancing.
This is identified in the “A” Model.
Your Software Inventory is used by the metric engine calculation to create your “Effective Demand.”

IMPORTANT: Compliance checks are highly dependent on both the data provided to CA SAM and the quality of the data.
CA SAM is designed to deliver a “Compliance Position” even if you are missing data elements.
It uses a concept of “default data” if key data elements are missing.
It identifies where “default data” elements are used to enable you to see and measure the risk associated with your Compliance Position.
To mitigate the risk and improve your compliance position addressing data quality issues is essential.
Balancing (Compliance Checks)Data Quality
19 © 2015 CA. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.@CAWORLD #CAWORLD
CA SAM uses a concept of “Validation Processes” to improve the quality of the balanced elements.
If “License Data” is missing at the time you execute a Compliance Check, you must ensure remaining license records in the License Clearing / Updating Process have no issues.
If there is “Usage Data” missing at the time you execute a Compliance Check, you must ensure Software Recognition function processes data from source to compliance is transferred and validated.
Balancing (Compliance Checks)Data Quality
20 © 2015 CA. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.@CAWORLD #CAWORLD
License Managers on your Compliance Team are required to review License Clearing and Software Recognition Processes to identify any additional data required.
This is an ongoing (steady-state) activity as data is constantly updated.
– It is recommended that both processes are reviewed prior to run each Compliance View.
Creating and executing an internal remediation process is key to managing data quality.
Once data quality issues are resolved, re-running Compliance Analysis is required.
Balancing (Compliance Checks)Data Quality
21 © 2015 CA. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.@CAWORLD #CAWORLD
Senior Management is not necessarily interested in the individual results of a Compliance Check.
They are focused on risk and related cost/impact the Compliance Positions create.
CA SAM supports the ability to create & understand the financial impact of a specific Compliance Position.
BEST PRACTICE:
– It is highly recommended that you include financial data as with the entitlement information entered into CA SAM.
– It enables business impact analysis and prioritization.
– Without it you will find it difficult to define the impact of your position.
Balancing (Compliance Checks)Compliance Intelligence
22 © 2015 CA. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.@CAWORLD #CAWORLD
The Compliance Intelligence function within CA SAM uses financial information to identify impact.
It is also the function that provides drill down/drill up capabilities during the analysis of your compliance Position.
It allows you to drill up and down into:
– Manufacturers and products
– Organizational levels within your organization
It provides a view into the associated risk and financial impact of your Compliance Positions.

The License Balance Manager should understand the correct Use Rights.
The License Balance Manager should ensure that all relevant Use Right information is made available.
The License Balance Manager should ensure downgrade paths are correctly activated and configured according to License terms.
The License Balance Manager is the internal key Role who should be providing all key information for License Inventory Administration.
ComplianceStep 4: Validate Additional (& Special) Use Rights
59 © 2015 CA. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.@CAWORLD #CAWORLD
Use the table configuration to show “Downgrade Path” and “Downgrade Path Position.”
Filter for a Downgrade Path you want to check and click “Downgrade Path Position” to sort by this value.
Within the same Downgrade Path, Position indicates the order in which CA SAM provides un-used licenses to demand not covered directly.
– In most cases demand is covered by the license at the closest higher position.
For exceptions check the Downgrade Rights matrix.
ComplianceStep 4: Effect of Downgrade on Compliance
60 © 2015 CA. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.@CAWORLD #CAWORLD
Use the table configuration to show “Effective demand (ignored)”.
Filter for value larger than 0.
Check the reason by drilling down into the Installations (ignored). There you find the reason why these installation are ignored calculating the demand.
In this case, the reason is “Parallel Usage (all members)” meaning all members of this Downgrade Path are allowed to be installed in parallel resulting in only 1 demand of the highest product within this path.
ComplianceStep 4: Effect of Parallel Use on Compliance
