Manage extended coverage
SAM Core on Snow Atlas lets you manage extended license coverage, that is, when one single license covers two installations of the same application on two separate computers or datacenters/clusters.
Extended coverage is used for passive cluster nodes, disaster recovery, test and development environments, and for customer specific reasons, that is, a customer specific agreement with extended use rights of the product.
