Hi all
We will soon be migrating our license server to a new server. In order to minimize frustrations, we want to add the second server to all SolidNetWork clients. This way, when we do the migration, all customers will be able to automatically switch without having to enter the new address, which requires additional privileges.
As we have 600 client workstations, I would like to be able to administer this on the command line, in order to push the addition of the name of the future server.
I found the registry key that handles the PORT@NOM_SERVEUR names:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\FLEXlm License Manager]
" SW_D_LICENSE_FILE "=" 25734@srv-lic1 "
I added a server via the UI to see how it changes this, after I changed the registry keys as follows:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\FLEXlm License Manager]
" SW_D_LICENSE_FILE "=" 25734@srv-lic3; 25734@srv-lic1 "
So logically, SolidNetWork will be able to call our future server srv-lic3.
But when I change this registry key on a client, SolidNetWork won't read the registry keys, but overwrites that value with the one it had in memory, I end up with only the old one again
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\FLEXlm License Manager]
" SW_D_LICENSE_FILE "=" 25734@srv-lic1 "
Has anyone ever encountered this behavior?
Is there another way to add a name on the client side without going through the UI?
Thank you in advance
Dan
