Should I count volume of data used by ES Add-Ons?<BR /><BR /> Or this is actual when we have separate instance for ES?</P> Mon, 15 Aug 2016 16:33:01 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Security/How-ES-Licensing-works/m-p/237395#M14852 evelenke 2016-08-15T16:33:01Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Security/How-ES-Licensing-works/m-p/237396#M14853 <P>Your ES license is based on your Splunk Enterprise license... so if you've got 100GB of Splunk license, your ES license will be calculated at 100GB.</P> <P>If you intend to add data while rolling out ES you can add the data to a testing instance for a few days and see how much you get, as you would when adding data to Splunk Enterprise without ES.</P> Mon, 15 Aug 2016 16:58:52 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Security/How-ES-Licensing-works/m-p/237396#M14853 martin_mueller 2016-08-15T16:58:52Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Security/How-ES-Licensing-works/m-p/237397#M14854 <P>Hi, do I understand correctly - if I have perpetual ES and perpetual Splunk Enterprise licensed and want to upgrade Splunk Enterprise - than I need also upgrade License ES to the same amount?</P> Tue, 16 Aug 2016 16:49:39 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Security/How-ES-Licensing-works/m-p/237397#M14854 evelenke 2016-08-16T16:49:39Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Security/How-ES-Licensing-works/m-p/237398#M14855 <P>That would be the way to go, yes.<BR /> Do keep in mind though, for detailed licensing discussions you should also talk to your local partner or Splunk sales representative.</P> Tue, 16 Aug 2016 18:14:13 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Security/How-ES-Licensing-works/m-p/237398#M14855 martin_mueller 2016-08-16T18:14:13Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Security/How-ES-Licensing-works/m-p/237399#M14856 <P>Nice, thank you!</P> Wed, 17 Aug 2016 08:43:16 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Security/How-ES-Licensing-works/m-p/237399#M14856 evelenke 2016-08-17T08:43:16Z
