	Electronic License Delivery

HP offers electronic license-to-use (E-LTU) options for software products in most regions of the world and through most points of sale.

At the time you place your order with HP, you need to provide an e-mail address to which an electronic receipt is sent by HP. Within the receipt is a link where you can access your license entitlement and complete the redemption process for your license activation keys for the number of licenses you ordered. E-Delivery is the fastest and most convenient means for you to obtain HP Insight software licenses that you need without any packaging materials to have to discard and impact the environment. Licenses delivered electronically have the same terms of use, functionality and included HP services as those delivered physically.

When E-LTU entitlements are redeemed, you will have the opportunity to download, as appropriate, the latest software image to use with your license activation keys. Another option is to purchase an HP Insight Software Media kit separately.

Please note that if you order E-LTUs together with hardware products, like servers or enclosures, HP will not send you the electronic receipts for the E-LTUs until the ordered hardware is ready to ship.

In the event E-LTUs are not available in your region or through your preferred point of sale, please order one of the physical delivery options instead.

Ideal environment

• Need very fast order fulfillment
• Prefer no physical packaging materials to dispose of
• Prefer to manage their software assets in digital form
• Otherwise qualify for the flexible quantity kit criteria below

	Flexible-quantity Licenses

Flexible-quantity licenses are ways to obtain an exact, desired quantity of licenses delivered in one entitlement certificate. When a number of flexible-quantity licenses are purchased, the quantity requested on your purchase order will be used to generate and enclose a single entitlement certificate for that exact quantity of licenses. Note that any license quantity can be purchased at a time up to a maximum quantity of 50,000 for a single order. The advantage to you is that you have much less material goods to receive and process and, upon completion of the entitlement redemption process, you have one license activation key to use for all the licenses in your order.

Ideal environment

• Are unable to take advantage of electronic license delivery
• Need to do a one-time purchase of Insight software for their current ProLiant installed base
• Purchase quantities of new ProLiant servers and need an equivalent number of software licenses to match the amount of servers purchased
• Want to curtail the number of license activation keys in use
• Want to minimize physical deliverables: need a single license key per quantity of licenses purchased at any given time

	Pay-as-you-Go Volume Licensing

• Hassle free volume-licensing program, based on an Activation Key Agreement (AKA)
