Q. I used your online license creator site to generate a permanent GO-Global for Windows license that is bound to the HostID (mac address) of our primary GO-Global server. It works fine on the primary server. Can you please let me know what I need to do in order to get two servers to share the same license?

A. In order to get two (or more) GO-Global servers to share the same license, you should use one system as a master license server and the other(s) as a slave server. To do this, copy the license.lic file from the master to the slave. The license.lic file resides in ..\graphon\go-global server\programs by default. Edit this file on the slave server and remove the line that refers to ‘INCREMENT session.’ Then add ‘use_server’ at the end of the file. Leave everything else as is. Disable the license manager service on the slave server and reboot the system.

Example of license.lic on the master server:

Code:

SERVER Mytest <mac address of master> DAEMON blm INCREMENT session blm 2.0 permanent 10 6EBAE39202D4 HOSTID=ANY ck=168 INCREMENT testapp blm 2.0 permanent uncounted 20791CD2C47A HOSTID=ANY ck=66

Example of license.lic on the slave server:

Code:

SERVER Mytest <mac address of master> DAEMON blm INCREMENT testapp blm 2.0 permanent uncounted 20791CD2C47A HOSTID=ANY ck=66 use_server
