Specifying the license server on Windows® Web servers

In the case of IBM Rational® RequisiteWeb and IBM Rational ClearQuest Web, the Web server is the client of the license server.
About this task

For example, when a user opens Rational RequisiteWeb on a client, the Rational RequisiteWeb Requirements server, on behalf of the user, requests the floating license from the license server.

Use the following procedures to specify the license server host name(s):
  1. Open License Key Administrator (LKAD):
    • After the product installation is complete, start the LKAD wizard and LKAD. The LKAD main window and the LKAD wizard open.
    • If you decided not to start the LKAD wizard and LKAD immediately after product installation, click Start > Programs > Rational product name > Rational License Key Administrator. The LKAD main window and the LKAD wizard open.
  2. Select Settings > Client/Server Configuration.
  3. Click Add Server.
  4. Single should be the default value next to Server Type. Enter the host name of the license server in the Values column next to Server Name by clicking New-Server. After entering the host name, press Enter.
