Building Operation licenses are controlled by license policies regarding the transaction of licenses. Therefore, it is important that a replacement or reinstallation of the license server is carefully planned.
If the License Server is assigned a new network address, all WorkStations and Enterprise Servers must be updated with the new address.
When reinstalling a License Server, the licenses on the License Server are not affected. All you have to do is to uninstall the License Server and then reinstall it. The licenses on the License Server do not have to be returned to the License Activation Server.
Before replacing the License Server hardware, return the licenses to the License Activation Server and then activate the licenses on the new License Server.
You can also use this workflow when relocating licenses to another License Server.

Description |
1 |
All licenses, located on the old License Server, are returned to the License Activation Server. |
2 |
The License Activation Server activates the licenses on the new License Server using the entitlement ID that originally was used to activate the licenses. |
Make sure that the new License Server has the same network address as the former License Server. If a new network address is assigned, update all WorkStations and Enterprise Servers with the address to the new License Server.
If problems with the License Server or activated licenses occur, you may have to reset the License Server. All details about activated licenses on the License Server are compiled in files that start with "taclic" and have the .data extension. The file name string after "taclic" can differ. An example of the License Server file name is taclic_00249e00_tsf.data. The license details files are created the first time a license is activated on the License Server. By deleting the files you reset the License Server.
