[FlexNet License Server]
Note
In the following article, we will describe the administration of certificate licenses for “Thermo Scientific Software” products.
Amira, Avizo, and PerGeos licenses issued before 2020.3 used a different technology for activation, please refer to this document for license administration for those versions.
Context
To activate your license(s), your license certificate needs to be bound to your license server machine identifier. The server machine identifier is called a Host ID.
The license server Host ID can be found using one of the methods below.
Important: If more than one value is displayed, please select just one. You can disable all temporary network connections (WLAN card, docking station, etc.) to ensure that the selected host ID is based on a permanent network adapter. You can re-enable the temporary network connections afterwards.
Process
- In the Thermo Scientific License Manager for Server Dashboard (Windows only):
- Or in the Thermo Scientific License Manager for Server Import license files dialog (Windows only):
- Or in the lmadmin web interface:
- Open http://localhost:8090/systeminfo in a web browser on the server machine.
- If you have just installed lmadmin, you will be prompted to enter a name and a password: enter “admin” and “admin” (default password) if you have not already set the admin password.
- Retrieve and copy the Ethernet Address.
- Or in your server license file if you have already installed licenses on your server.
The license server Host ID is the string following the SERVER this_host keywords.
