Additional Configuration Options - the config.ini File

The file /opt/license-server/config.ini offers additional configuration options for the VE License Server.

There are samples of the options in /opt/license-server/config.ini.sample.

The file currently has three sections:

• [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 use.

• [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:

After parameters in this file have been changed, the license server must be restarted to activate the changes (systemctl restart licensed).
