License Client
- License Client Overview
  Use the License Client to activate, review, and update licenses on a client device or a USB hardware key. The License Client can retrieve licenses from a Cloud License Server, a Local License Server on your intranet, or a USB hardware key.
- Installing the License Client
  You must install the License Client on all client devices that require to activate a Proficy software.
- Removing Existing Legacy Licenses
  Before migrating to cloud-based licensing, you must remove your existing licenses.
- Upgrading Legacy Licenses
  If you received an upgrade file for a legacy license, you can use that file to update the legacy license instead of the License Client.
- Viewing the Audit Log
  The ProficyLicenseClient_Audit.log file provides details about operations performed on the License Client.
- Viewing Licenses
  The View Licenses tab displays information about licenses on this computer. You can display license information for all products or a particular product.
- Activating Licenses
- Applying Proficy Licenses using Tag Pooling from Cloud Server
  Activating licenses with tag pooling enables efficient management of SCADA systems by allowing you to allocate additional tags (database blocks) without having to reorder new licenses. This feature streamlines the process of expanding SCADA systems and distributing tag licenses across multiple systems using a pooling code. The pooling code provides the flexibility to add, distribute, or return tags based on your system requirements. Currently, tag pooling is available for SCADA iFIX and CIMPLICITY product software licenses.

Typically, the term license for GE Vernova Proficy products range from 3 to 5 years. Once the term license expires, you must renew the license to continue using the Proficy software.
