8. Microsoft Select Agreement
OSU’s Microsoft Select Agreement expires on 6/30/2016
This is the agreement we purchase things not on our Campus Agreement from
e.g. Project, Visio, etc.
The old Select Agreement is no longer available
All new agreements are “Select Plus,” which does not co-term Software Assurance (SA)
We’re working with MS at this time, but will have an update at the next meeting.
You will have to plan to renew Software Assurance and MSDN accounts when the agreement expires.

9. Adobe CC for Students & DPS
Adobe has brought good proposals to the table regarding Creative Cloud for Students, and DPS for campus
Discussions remain ongoing regarding these products
The Inter-University Council (IUC) of Ohio is discussing Adobe CC for students across all 14 schools

10. Renewals SAS – complete, Codes received Secunia – complete, renewed
Adobe – complete, renewed
Sigmaplot – complete, Codes received
JMP – complete, Codes received
Maple – complete, renewed

11. Renewals: Sigmaplot Before Dec. 31, we received codes for v. 13
Codes for v. 12 and 11 were received in early January
Recommend upgrading if you are running an old version (v. 11 came out 7 years ago)
We have encountered some issues with renewal

12. Renewals: Sigmaplot Renewal instructions: http://ocio.osu.edu/KB04362
If the issue persists:
You can find the license file here, typically (default location):
c:\Program Files (x86)\SigmaPlot\SPW13
And the license file is called "lservrc" with no file extension. (There is also a lservrc.ppp file: ignore that file for this process).
If you rename this file "lservrc.old" and re-run the process in the KB article above, this may solve your issue.

13. Renewals: Sigmaplot If the issue continues to persist:
Users have found that they can sometimes change the name of the Sentinel folder, and run the authorization process again. To do this, locate this folder, typically installed at:
C:\ProgramData\SafeNet Sentinel
(“ProgramData” is often a hidden file)
And rename the “SafeNet Sentinel” folder to “SafeNet Sentinel Old”
Try the authorization process once more by re-running the process in the KB article above, this should solve your issue.

14. Possible Site License: ExamSoft
ExamSoft offered pricing is as follows:
$8/student/year at 30,000 users
Support separate
Currently, we have 5,000 active test takers at $40-45/taker
Current spend: in excess of $200,000
We believe our current need is for 10k test takers

15. Student FTE totals
We’re looking at ExamSoft from an FTE model based on the percentage of students in a specific area who wants to join in.
ExamSoft licensing is based on test-taker, not FTE, but this is a close metric

16. OSU Purchasing IT Update
Bids in flight now
ERP bid is closed, and we are reviewing responses
Multi-Factor Authentication bid has been awarded to Duo
Vulnerability Management bid is pending award
