All Stromasys CHARON virtual machine software products are licensed using a Sentinel HASP (Hardware Against Software Piracy) key. To use these products you must have both the physical key and a valid license file loaded on to it. The following CHARON-SSP products require this license key to operate:
CHARON-SSP for GNU//4M for Linux
- CHARON-SSP/4U for Linux
CHARON-SSP Virtual Environment
The following products work with the licensed products, but do not require the HASP key a license themselves:
- CHARON-SSP Manager for GNU/ Linux
- CHARON-SSP Manager for Microsoft Windows
- CHARON-SSP Agent for Linux
Licensing CHARON-SSP for Linux
It is possible to gather license information and apply license keys using a collection of tools. These different tools provide both command line and GUI interfaces to managing the licenses for CHARON-SSP products. They also allow for licenses to be managed either locally on the host system or remotely from a client (running either GNU/Linux
...
or Microsoft Windows).
All licensing techniques follow the same basic four steps:
- Generate a C2V (customer to vendor) key information file;
- Submit the C2V information to Stromasys Orders Administration;
- Receive one or more V2C (vendor to customer) license key files; and
- Apply the V2C files to the local system.
The following sections describe how to apply each of these steps using the different tools available.
