The Supervisor License Manager (Figure 25) is an available view of the Licenses slot under the ProvisioningNwExt.
This view provides access and management of the Supervisor’s “local license database”—that is, the structured organization of “host ID-named” subfolders and contained license files that
reside under the Supervisor’s !/licenses folder. As in the equivalent “Workbench License Manager” view, it provides a two-pane window into all the license files and
parent “host ID” folders, where:
-
Left pane provides tree navigation, where you can expand folders and click (to select) license files.
-
Right pane shows the text contents of any selected license file.
Buttons at the bottom of this view provide a way to manage the contents of the Supervisor’s local license database, and are described as follows:
-
— Always available, this allows you to add license file(s) from a local license file or license archive (
.lar) file. -
Export File — Always available, this allows you to save all licenses (or any selected licenses) locally, as a license archive file.
-
Delete — This allows you to delete licenses from the Supervisor’s local license database.
-
Synchronize — Typically always available if you have Internet connectivity. This lets you update all licenses (or any selected licenses) in Supervisor’s local license database with the most current versions, via the online licensing server.
For more details and related information, refer to the Platform Guide sections “About the licensing server”, “Workbench License Manager”, “About the local license database”, and “About license archive (.lar) files”.
