Configure Workstation

License servers are identified by a hostname and a port number, this information must be configured so that your applications can function.

The ALS Client Configuration Tool is used to configure a workstation so that licensed applications can locate up to three AVEVA Licensing Systems and obtain the licenses required to function.

The Client Configuration Tool also allows configuration of a network timeout setting that can be used to tune performance on networks that offer intermittent connectivity to a license server. For example, a license server located on a remote site.

The Client Configuration Tool usually only needs to be used once per client workstation, when installing the first AVEVA application. However, it may be necessary to run the Client Configuration Tool again if the license server configuration changes.

Note:
Before attempting to configure a workstation you must know the hostname and port number of each license server that is intended for use. If you do not have this information, contact your organization's system administrator or IT department.
