Configure Server Search List

This information applies only to licenses on a server in a customer company.

On each computer that is to use network licenses, customer license servers must be stored in the server search list. One or more servers can be stored and the order for these can be defined. Network licenses are then searched for on stored servers. For the following procedures you need the three commands addServers, removeServers and removeAllServers. You can use checkServers command to check if the connection to the server can be established.

Procedure

Add a Server

  1. Open the command line interface.
  2. Enter the following command:
    VectorLicenseClient -addServers <serverList> [-verbose]
    ServerList can contain one or more servers. The individual servers are separated by a ;. You can specify the server by indicating the IP or Servername.
  3. Press <Enter>.

Procedure

Remove a Customer License Server

  1. Open the command line interface.
  2. Enter the following command:
