Description

The Set-SCOMLicense cmdlet sets the System Center - Operations Manager product license level and removes the evaluation expiration timeout. To view the current license terms, use the Get-SCOMLicense cmdlet. You can also view the license information in the Operations Console Help About dialog box.

You must run Windows PowerShell as an administrator to use this cmdlet.

By default, this cmdlet uses the active persistent connection to a management group. Use the SCSession parameter to specify a different persistent connection. You can create a temporary connection to a management group by using the ComputerName and Credential parameters. For more information, type Get-Help about_OpsMgr_Connections.

After you enter a license key, restart the System Center Data Access Service on all of your Operations Manager management servers.
