EcoStruxure BMS uses two types of licenses: the network license and the local license. Network licenses are the most common type of license in an EcoStruxure BMS. With network licenses, only the number of licenses that are used at the same time are required. The local license is often time limited and used to test and run a system that is under construction.

Network licenses are distributed from the License Server. The License Server shares a predetermined number of simultaneous instances that are available network-wide. To start licensed clients and EcoStruxure BMS servers using network licenses, the required number of licenses have to be available on the License Server.

A time-limited license is a license that gives license rights for a predetermined period of time, usually 30 days. When the time period is over, the license expires. These licenses are distributed as local licenses.
To avoid critical stops, purchase permanent licenses before the time limited-licenses expire.
A permanent license does not expire.
To avoid critical stops, purchase permanent licenses before the time limited-licenses expire.
When a licensed WorkStation, WebStation, client tool, Enterprise Server or Enterprise Central starts, it first checks if a local license is available. If a local license is not available or has expired, the WorkStation, Enterprise Server, or Enterprise Central checks out a network license from a License Server. If no license is available, the WorkStation, client tool, Enterprise Server, or Enterprise Central does not start.
