- [esxi]: the parameters in this section are set up by the esxi_bind program. Do not modify them manually.
- [peer]: contains the configuration of a peer license server . Reserved for future usewhen running in AutoVE mode. If a peer has been defined, the two license servers can synchronize their client databases and act as primary and backup AutoVE servers. It contains the following parameters:
- address: IP address of the peer license server
- port: TCP port used to contact the peer server
- passphrase: used to authenticate to the peer server (must be the same as configured on the the license installed on the peer). This use of the passphrase is different from the client/server authentication when the license server runs in general VE mode.
- [general]: used to define non-default ports for the VE server operation:
- port: TCP port used to serve the license to license client systems. Default: 8083.
- http_port: TCP port on which the web interface can be accessed. Default: 8084.
- sync_port: local TCP port for communicating with the peer server. Default: 8085. Reserved for future use: Relevant for AutoVE mode.
After parameters in this file have been changed, the license server must be restarted to activate the changes (systemctl restart licensed).
