Self-managed licenses in License Manager
Self-managed licenses (formerly known as license configurations) are the core of License Manager. Self-managed licenses contain licensing rules based on the terms of your enterprise agreements. The rules that you create determine how AWS processes commands that consume licenses. While creating self-managed licenses, work closely with your organization's compliance team to review your enterprise agreements.
AWS services such as License Manager have service quotas that define the maximum number of
resources or operations per Region that are available to your AWS account for that service.
For example, with License Manager, you can have a maximum of 10
self-managed licenses per
resource, with no more than 25
self-managed licenses total in any given AWS Region.
To find out more about License Manager quotas, see AWS License Manager Service
quotas in the AWS General Reference.
Note
Systems Manager managed instances must be associated with vCPU and instance type self-managed licenses.
