You can configure a redundant license server environment.
- Install the license server software on each server
computer. For instructions, see ee the topic Managing licenses with Rational Common Licensing under the
Installing and upgrading section in either the IBM Rational® ClearCase® Information
Center or the IBM Rational ClearQuest® Information
Center.
Note: Do not implement servers
on a mix of operating systems (Windows
®, Linux
®, and the UNIX
® system). Use a redundant environment
of all servers on the same operating system.
- Make sure that the three servers operate on the same
TCP/IP port.
- Make sure that other processes are not sharing the
TCP/IP port.
- Enter or import the license keys on each license
server.
- To configure named-user floating licenses, edit the
options file.
- Start each license server.
- Optional: Enter port values.
- Give users the license server names (in the correct
order: Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary) to enter into their License Key Administrator
(LKAD). This step is not necessary if the server names were entered into a
site defaults file in a network release area. For more information about release
areas, see your IBM Rational product installation
information.
