This guide is intended for anyone who needs to install, configure, or manage the Stromasys Charon-SSP VPC Virtual Environment (VE) license server. A general working knowledge of PC operating systems Linux and their its conventions is expected.This getting-started
VE stands for "Virtual Environment". At the time of writing, this term refers to supported cloud environments only. For Charon-SSP products using such licenses, customers must purchase their license from Stromasys. This is different from the cloud-specific Charon-SSP Automatic Licensing (AL) images where licensing is configured automatically when the cloud instance is launched.
This guide covers the Charon-SSP VE License Server software. This appliance package contains a license server application that can be installed in customer-specific AWS, OCI, GCP and ESXi environments. It enables customers to run, for example, Azure environments (the list of supported platforms may be extended in the future). This licensing option is adapted to the special requirements of a cloud environment and simplifies the process of running Charon-SSP in a virtual private cloud environment without requiring Internet access to reach a license server.The license server software requires customer-specific cloud environments. The license server is managed by the customer.
VE licenses provided by a VE license server require a specific variant of the Charon-SSP software (available starting with Charon-SSP VPC version 4.2.x). The tests examples in this guide were performed partially created with a pre-release of version 4.2. For a full description of Charon-SSP version 4.2 aspects that are not related to the specifics of the VPC VE license application, please refer to the full your Charon-SSP user's guide of your product variant.
