Licensing Changes

For a number of years Micro Focus used the Micro Focus License System Administration for Net Express and Server Express.

Micro Focus now uses two standard industry technologies for license management, Micro Focus AutoPass and Sentinel RMS. New product releases use AutoPass and Sentinel RMS.

Important: The SafeNet Sentinel licensing system has been deprecated and will be not available in this product starting with the next major release - release 10.0.

The SafeNet Sentinel licenses will not be supported after release 9.0. You can only use AutoPass licenses from release 10.0.

You can replace your SafeNet Sentinel licenses with AutoPass licenses starting with release 8.0. However, it is not necessary to switch to AutoPass licenses unless you are adopting release 10.0. Contact Micro Focus Customer Care for further information.
