As of PARTsolutions V9.03 the license administration has been integrated in PARTadmin under the category License administration. [225]Via License administration all licenses of the PARTsolutions installation are managed.
Hostid setting happens automatically
No host ID settings have to be performed manually. All available host IDs are passed on to the service "cnslocal" or "cnsmaster" and the license file decides, which host ID is to be used.
On the tabbed page Checkouts you can administratively specify, whether users are allowed to check out floating licenses. The checkout is performed in the respective module under ? menu -> Licenses (F9) -> tabbed page Checkout.
Thereby the amount of available Floating licenses is reduced for the before determined time period. Then the checked out license can be used on the respective computer up to the end of the checkout period. On the license server the license is blocked until the defined checkout period ends. In this way a floating license can be used on a journey for example as quasi "nodelocked".
On this see Section 7.6.1.5, “"Checkout" tabbed page” in PARTsolutions - User manual.
Dynamic Nodelocked licenses are centrally administrated nodelocked licenses. They are created on a FLM server - like real Floating licenses - and distributed by it. In contrary to Floating licenses they are not released again directly after use.
Each instance of a Dynamic-Nodelocked license is assigned to a specific computer ("Nodelocked")
Existing assignments can be changed - after a certain minimum dwell time ("Dynamic"). In this way a quick reaction at a computer change is possible.
The complete documentation on the new License administration is found under Section 1.4, “ License administration ” in PARTsolutions - Administration Manual.
