Server Console INI File Format

You can create an INI-formatted file to specify the server connection and activation codes for the Server Console. You can add or remove licenses in the same INI file.

The following example illustrates how to format an INI file to manage multiple licenses:

[SERVERCONNECTION]
Address=localhost
PortNumber=3333
[ACTIVATIONS]
Count=3
ActID0=AAAA-AAAA-AAAA-AAAA::1
ActID1=BBBB-BBBB-BBBB-BBBB::3
ActID2=CCCC-CCCC-CCCC-CCCC::0

In the above example:

• There are 3 activations on the list
• The list starts at ActID0.
  • The ActID0 code followed by (::1) will result in a final total of 1.
  • If the server did not have this code, then the code will be added with an absolute total of 1.
  • If this code already existed in the server before the request is made, the total will adjust to the quantity that was just requested.
  • If the server already had the ActID0 code with a total of 3 before the ActID0=AAAA-AAAA-AAAA-AAAA::1 request, then 2 quantities of the code will be removed to adjust to the absolute total of 1.
• The second activation on the list is ActID1
  • The ActID1 code followed by (::3) will result in a final total of 3.
• The third activation on the list is ActID2.
  • The ActID2 followed by (::0) will result in a final total of 0.
  • All quantities of this code are removed and the code is deleted from the local license server.

Use the following tables to format information about the Local License Server:
