Modify License Allocation
This section contains instructions to modify your license allocation to other
tenants.
You can increase or decrease license allocations for a tenant after
activation. When you reduce a tenant’s allocation, the reduced quantity returns to
your license pool, and you can reallocate it to another tenant to maximize license
utilization across your organization. If you reduce license capacity for a Tenant
Service Group (TSG), a fully allocated license automatically converts to a shared
allocation.
When you purchase additional license capacity, it is no longer allocated to
existing TSGs by default. Instead, you decide whether to assign the new capacity to
the same TSG or distribute it across multiple TSGs, depending on your organization’s
needs. For example, if you purchase additional licenses for a new tenant, you can
directly allocate the new capacity to that tenant, or adjust allocations across
existing tenants as needed.
When you reduce the license capacity:
- You cannot reduce allocations below 200 users, the minimum required for service continuity.
- You can only reduce licenses in multiples of 10.
- When you reduce base license quantities, associated add-ons such as ADEM-AIOps, ZTNA Connector, or Remote Browser Isolation automatically adjust to maintain alignment.
- The mobile users and remote networks quantity can be reduced to either minimum quantity or it can also be made zero by deselecting those options.
- You cannot reduce the license capacity for Panorama Managed tenants.
All superusers, multitenant superusers, and business administrators of the
TSG will receive notification when you reduce license capacity. If the reduction
requires configuration changes (for example, adjusting bandwidth for sites), you
must make these changes before committing the configuration. Until then, commits are
blocked with a license quantity mismatch message.
SASE
Important: We are rolling out this new, unified activation experience in
stages. For supported SASE products, you may see the new activation console now,
or you maybe directed to use the Hub for activation until the update reaches
your tenant.
