Specifying License Manager for Connection

If you have several Floating User licenses, you may need to specify to which License Manager your AQTime instance will connect.

When starting, AQTime searches for an activated License Manager in the local network. However, by default the search order is not specified. So, AQTime may connect to the License Manager, which you do not want it to connect to. To solve this problem, you should specify the License Manager for connection.

You specify the License Manager on the computer, on which AQTime will run.

Follow these steps:

1. Go to the computer, on which AQTime will run.

2. Close AQTime.

3. Open the Sentinel Admin Control Center. To do this, open the URL http://localhost:1947 in a web browser (see Controlling License Manager for more information).

4. In the Admin Control Center, click Configuration in the left-side menu. This will open the Configuration pages.

5. Navigate to the Access to Remote License Managers tabbed page.

6. Clear the Broadcast Search for Remote Licenses check box.

7. In the Specify Search Parameters box enter the search criteria for the License Manager PC. You can use any of the following:

   • Computer name (for instance, MyLicenseServer).
   • IP address (for instance, 192.168.1.10).
   • Broadcast IP address (for example, 192.168.1.255). In this case, the service will search for the License Manager PC among the computers whose IP address matches the search string.

8. Click Submit to apply the changes.

Now AQTime will connect to the License Manager PC, you specified in the search parameters.

You can also specify multiple search criteria. To do this, simply enter the desired computer names or IP addresses into the Specify Search Parameters box. Each search expression must be on a separate line.
