License Manager has two primary work areas: the License Server Summary Page, and the Details Page. All License Manager functionality is available from one of these two pages.
Using License Manager, you can add or remove License Servers and you can start or stop the connected server. You can also pair two License Servers to enable server redundancy.
-
Adding a License Server makes the License Manager the manager for that server.
-
Removing a License Server disassociates it from the local License Manager, but does not uninstall the server from the computer where it is installed.
-
Starting a License Server enables the services associated with managing the licenses hosted on that server.
-
Stopping a License Server disables the services associated with managing the licenses hosted on that server.
-
Pairing two License Servers in the same License Manager enables License Server redundancy. For more information see Working With License Server Redundancy.
-
License information is updated between the License Server and the Activation Server. For more information, see Syncing Licenses.
It is recommended to manage multiple License Servers with a single License Manager. See the Deployment section for detailed information on the recommended topologies applicable to various environments.
