Bulk Server License Setup


Registering PowaMaster
#

Note: If a server-based licensing model is selected, the client must not be licensed on the server itself
  1. Open PowaMaster.
  2. Select “I Agree” in the “PowaMaster DEMO” Window.
  3. From PowaMaster’s Main Menu, select “Help -> Registration”.
  4. In the “PowaMaster Registration” form, select the radio button next to Server Bulk License.
  5. If a valid connection to the License Server cannot be established automatically, an error will occur and a “PowaMaster Login” screen will appear.
  6. Complete the Login details as follows:
  • Supply the “User Name” and “Password” for login to the server.
  • “Server” must be set to the “Server Name / IP Address” of the computer on which the License Database is installed.
  • Set “Port” according to the Database Server configuration (e.g., “1501”, “21501”, etc.)
  • Set “Database” according to the Database configuration (e.g., “iipower”)
  1. Select the “Test” button to verify that the Server can be connected to:
  • Green – Indicates that the Database can be connected to “successfully”.
  • Red – Indicates that the Database cannot be connected to. Ensure that the Login details are correct and the firewall is setup correctly.
  1. Click “OK” to connect to the Database and Log In.

If PowaMaster has ALREADY been UNLOCKED on the License Server, configuration is complete and you can stop here. Continue the process if PowaMaster still needs to be unlocked.
