APM licensing and user rights

Application Performance Monitor is installed during the WhatsUp Gold installation. Your license determines whether the APM plug-in is available in WhatsUp Gold. To view current APM license information, click the Application Settings icon () in the upper-right corner of the interface, then select Application Settings to launch the Application Settings interface. Select the System tab, then click About WhatsUp Gold to launch the About WhatsUp Gold dialog. APM license usage information is also available at the top of each page on the APM Configuration tab. You can see additional details about how licenses are being consumed by clicking Details. To update your license for APM, visit the WhatsUp Customer Portal.

In addition to having a license that includes APM, you must also have the proper user rights enabled for the user account logged in:

• To view APM in the WhatsUp Gold interface, the Access APM user right must be enabled.
• To create or modify application profiles, the Configure APM Application Profiles user right must be enabled.
• To create or modify application instances, the Configure APM Application Instances user right must be enabled.
