The license key usage order has changed for version 7.x of IBM Rational products. In releases before 7.x, when a suite product was being installed, the Rational License Key Administrator (LKAD) application would first try to find a license key corresponding to the Suite. If the suite key was not available, LKAD would then look for a key corresponding to the product that was started.
You can use the License Usage Mapper in LKAD to change the release 7.x license usage order or have the application not search for any or all suite keys.
Table 1 describes the default license usage order for each Rational product that uses Rational Common Licensing (powered by FLEXlm software).

You may want to customize the license usage order in some cases. For example, you may want to have a product search for a specific suite key first. If you would like to change how your product uses point-product and suite licenses, see Changing suite license usage on your computer.
