It was my understanding that a "defined" client on the server would fall from 
the "in-use" number after 30 days.  IE, 30 days of inactivity and the in-use 
count decrements.

Hi

Yes, every node registred on the server counts as one client license.

Also, if you use separate nodenames for Tivoli Data Protection clients,
everyone will count as 1 Managed System LAN.

I'm not sure, but I also think that every Managed System SAN counts as one
managed systems lan also.

I'm in the midst of doing a cleanup job on our TSM servers.  When I do a 'q
license', one of the results is:

Number of Managed System for LAN in use: 107

My question is, what counts as 'in use'?  For example, there are a bunch of
nodes that are defined and are no longer used or associated with any
schedules.  Do these count as 'in use', and if so, should I export the node
out of the db and delete it to get the license counts down?  One other
question: anyone got a query to figure out which nodes are NOT associated
with a schedule.  This would help me identify nodes that are candidates for
export.

Many thanks,
Dylan
