Enter the following data into the Virtual Environment section of the license configuration pane:

  • Primary license server: the format of this field is <ip-address>[:<port>]. Where
    • <ip-address> is the name or address of the primary license server (use localhost or 127.0.0.1 if the license server is on the same system as the emulator),
    • <port> is the TCP port on which the license is served (if not specified, the default port 8083 will be used).

  • Backup license server: if you have a backup license server (supported in Charon-SSP version 4.1.19 or later), add the IP address, and, if not-default, the TCP port of the backup server in this field. The format is the same as for the primary license server. The backup server typically provides a license limited to a certain number of runtime hours should the primary server become unavailable. If all valid licenses are lost or removed while an emulator is running, there is a grace period (configured on the license; default: 2 hours). The grace period is the time period during which the emulator continues to run after its license has been lost or removed. If there is no valid license after the grace period ends, the emulator will stop (this could cause data loss for a running guest system).

  • Passphrase fields: the passphrase authenticates the license client to the the license server. It is defined when the license is created by Stromasys. Please let Stromasys know if you require a license with or without a passphrase (can be selected per product section); passphrases are supported in emulator versions 4.3.x and higher. If your license was created with a passphrase, enter the passphrase in the corresponding fields. You will find the passphrase on the license server in the output of the license_viewer program. If the license contains more than one product section, there will be a passphrase for each product section. Select the one defined for the product section the emulator instance will use.
