Deploying Floating Licenses

Deploying Floating Licenses

Overview

Although you have elected to have an Intercax License Server that serves floating licenses to the Syndeia software, there is one extra step that is needed. Both Syndeia Cloud and Syndeia Clients, e.g. Cameo / Rhapsody plugins and Standalone, need to include a License Pointer File that includes the FQDN and port of the Intercax License Server so that they can reach that server and check out / check in licenses.

Refer to the child page https://intercax.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/SYN36/pages/3330198876 that provides you the details for creating your License Pointer File and deploying it with Syndeia Cloud and Syndeia Clients. Your entire team that is using the same license server needs only one copy of this file.
