Specifying the license server path

You must configure the path to the license server. The IBM® Rational® Asset Manager server needs to detect the name of the license server and the TCP/IP so that they can communicate.

Before you begin

To specify the path to the license server, you must be a repository administrator.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the web application.
  2. Click Administration.
  3. Click Configuration.
  4. In the License and Version section, in the Location of license server field, type the port number, then the full name of the lìcense server. Separated the number and name with an At sign (@). For example, 8010@license_server_path.

    If you select Repository administrator use only for the License type, the Location of license server field is disabled.

    If you have redundant license servers, separate multiple entries with commas. You must provide three servers. For example, 27000@primary.example.com,27000@secondary.example.com,27777@tertiary.example.com.

    If you have multiple license servers, where the servers are on different networks and have different licenses:
    • Windows: Separate server addresses with semicolons (;). For example, 27000@main.example.com;27000@backup.example.com.
    • Linux, AIX®, or Linux for zSeries®: Separate server addresses with colons (:). For example, 27000@main.example.com:27000@backup.example.com.
  5. To configure the type of licenses for the repository to use, under License type, select either Standard edition, Enterprise edition, or Repository administrator use only. Licenses are not required for users who are repository administrators. Repository administrators have authority to perform any activity with the Rational Asset Manager web application. Do not assign repository administrator privileges to typical users. If you select Repository administrator use only, users who are not repository administrators cannot view asset details and cannot submit or update assets.
  6. Click Save.
