Entering temporary floating license keys

Steps for using a temporary floating license.
About this task

You can enter a temporary or evaluation license key on the license server if you are evaluating the product or the Rational® License Key Center is unavailable.

Remember: You must have local administrative privileges for the server before you can enter the license key into License Key Administrator (LKAD).

To enter license information in LKAD:

  1. Click License Keys > Enter a License.
  2. Select the type of license.
  3. In the next window, enter the following information:
    • Product
    • Expiration Date
    • License Key
    • Quantity (if you are installing a floating license key)
  4. Click Finish. LKAD adds this information to the license key *.dat file in <Install Path>\Rational\Common.
