Any Workbench PC (including an Supervisor) has a “local license database” that is a structured collection of subdirectories and file under its Niagara release (system home) !/licenses/db directory. Each subdirectory has a unique NiagaraAX “host ID” name, matching that for some remote host platform. Figure A.12 shows an example of this license database structure, as viewed in the Workbench Nav tree.

Your local license database is created and managed automatically by Workbench, and updated whenever you perform license operations from platform connections, PlatformService plugins, or when using Workbench tools such as the Workbench License Manager. Note that you can see the same directory/file structure when looking at this location on your Workbench PC using Windows Explorer.

The license required for your (local) Workbench PC operation is in the root of the licenses folder, named simply by your brand, for example Tridium.license.
