Glossary
- A machine on which the software is installed. The application server can be the same as the license server.
- A file that is stored on your license server and allows you to control access to products. The default file is
/etc/opt/licenses/
daemon_options
.
- A number you receive from the Sun License Center to help you verify you have entered all license information correctly into the license installation tool lit and lit_tty. The DC is made from the license feature name, feature version, license server node name, license server hostid, and node-locked hostid.
- See Try and Buy license.
- A name referring to hardware. For example,
/dev/dsk/c0t6d0s2
is a CD-ROM device name. The name may differ depending on your machine and how you configure it.
- A machine on a network that does not have a disk and relies on a server for file storage and other basic services. Do not install the licensing software on a diskless client.
- A concurrent user license that makes software available to any user on any computer on a network.
- An eight-digit hexadecimal number that is unique to each system and is used to identify that system.
- An identifying name given to a computer.
- The directory where you decide to install Sun WorkShop products and licenses. The default is
/opt
.
- The license manager daemon (
lmgrd.ste
) monitors the requests for access to Sun WorkShop software. This daemon also handles the communication between the software application requested for use and the vendor daemon.
- The workstation or machine running the license daemon.
- Where you perform the installation on the machine with the CD-ROM drive where you loaded the product CD and install the product software on that same machine; where you download the product software and install the product software on the same machine. In a local installation, the source computer and the target computer are the same machine. See source computer and target computer.
- An addressable point on a network. Each node in a network has a different name. A node can connect a computing system, a terminal, or various other peripheral devices to the network.
- Refers to an application that can run only on the licensed machine (the node).
- The dependence of one package on the installation of other packages. For example, if you install a compiler, you must also install the backend component, header file, and front-end component packages.
- A number you receive from the Sun License Center to help you verify you have entered all license information correctly into the license installation tool lit and lit_tty. The expiration date, vendor string, RTU, and password all contribute to the generation of this number.
- See application server.
- Three servers acting as a single logical license server.
- Where you perform the installation or download the product software on one machine (source computer) and install the software on another machine (target computer). See source computer and target computer.
- A machine that provides a network service. For example, license checkouts and checkins must be performed on a server.
- Two or more independent servers combined so that users can obtain a license token from any one of the servers. See Multiple Independent Server Configuration on page 4 of the Sun WorkShop 6 Installation and Licensing Reference Manual.
- The machine with the CD-ROM drive where you loaded the product CD; the machine where you downloaded the product software. See also local installation, remote installation, and target computer.
- The machine where the product software is installed. See also local installation, remote installation, and source computer.
- A license that allows you to evaluate free of charge any Sun WorkShop software for a specified period of time (also called demonstration or demo licenses). A Try and Buy license does not need a license daemon to run and allows an unlimited number of concurrent users.
- The daemon that tracks which users have licenses for a product, if they are checked out, and how many licenses are available. The Sun WorkShop daemons,
sunwlicd and suntechd
, run on the license server.
- A code used to ensure license passwords are unique. For ScholarPASS and GoldPASS domain licensed customers, this code contains the customer's domain name.
