To configure your workstation to use a central license server

You can set up a central Sentinel RMS license server if your authorization code grants multiple licenses. A license server is installed automatically when you install your Micro Focus product, and you can use any license server installation as your central license server without additional configuration.

CAUTION:

If you change the name of your license server after you have installed licenses it will stop working.

The task steps below describe how to authorize your workstation product if you want to obtain a license from a central Sentinel RMS license server. Internet connectivity is required.

You need the IP address or server name for the central license server you want to access. You should be able to get this from your License System Administrator.

Important: We recommend that other options on Advanced Configuration are modified only under guidance from Micro Focus SupportLine.

Start the Micro Focus Licensing Administration tool.
Select Options > Advanced Configuration
Click Change against the License Server row.
Enter the IP address or server name of the central license server.
Click Save.
Click Close.
