Configuring the Server Edition License Source

Last Updated : Feb 22, 2016 |
For Server Edition deployments, the license source can be centralized or nodal.
  • With centralized licensing, the PLDS license file resides on the WebLM server. The WebLM server is the license source and all nodes in the solution receive licenses from the WebLM server. The WebLM server can run on a remote machine or on the Primary Server.
  • With nodal licensing, a PLDS license file is uploaded to each node.
All systems in the Server Edition solution must use the same license source. The license source is defined by the configuration setting License | License | License Source. Use this procedure to set all nodes to use the same license source.
  1. Log in to Manager.
  2. On the Solution view page, on the right hand side, select Set All Nodes License Source.
  3. In the Select License Source window, select either
    • Local/Primary Server for nodal licensing.
    • WebLM for centralized licensing.
    ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
    All nodes in the solution are set to the same license source.
