Description


With the Sentinel license server software installed, a license monitor is available through a web browser interface and can be viewed on the license server by going to the address, http://localhost:6002.  The SuperPro license monitor is a Java applet and security settings on your browser may prevent it from successfully running on the server, though security exceptions can be made in the Java settings on the server computer to allow it. Contact your IT administrator to determine an appropriate resolution.

 

When the monitor is running and accessible it will appear as shown below, where each row corresponds to a SuperPro license being hosted by the server computer.  Note that SuperPro licenses are not unique to FRED and there may be keys listed in the Sentinel License Monitor that are not associated with Photon Engineering.

 

 

Clicking on the key # in the left column of the license monitor will display the current license usage details for the selected key.

 

 

Clicking on the ">>" button in the Sublicense column will display the sublicense usage for the selected key.  If the selected key is a network license, the Number In Use will indicated how many network licenses are currently in use.
