Network Modules

Similar to Local Modules, this tab displays a list of modules that are being served from the server that the PC is pointing to (see the section called Client set up). The Description column advises which modules are being served; the Version column advises which version the licenses are; the Total column shows the total number of licenses that are installed on the server; the Accessible Total shows the total number of licenses that are available to you from your PC (this is not necessarilly the number of licenses available to you now); The Used Elsewhere column shows the number of licenses that are currently in use by other users; and the Used Here column shows the number of licenses that are currently in use on your PC. The number of licenses currently available for you to use is the Accessible Total less the Used Elsewhere total.

Each network module has an icon to the left, signifying the status of that module. These statuses are the same as those on the >Current Licenses tab.

If you click on a network module and then click the Usage button, the Module Usage dialog is displayed:

This shows which PCs and users are currently using the selected module. This information can be seen from any PC that is connected to the License Server (see the section called Client set up). This is useful if you have run out of licenses and wish to tell somebody that you wish to take their license to use.

    Killing a user's session

    Administrators on the Server machine can use the Module Usage dialog to kill a users session and take back the licenses they were using.

    To Kill a user's session:

  1. As an Administrator on the server machine, go to the Network Modules tab of the License Manager.

  2. Click on the Description of the license you require, then click the Usage button.

  3. Click on the Computer whose licenses you wish to kill, then click the Kill button.

  4. You will receive a warning message, advising that this will kill all licenses for this computer/user. Click OK to kill the licenses or Cancel to return to the License Manager

    Note

    If the user (whose session has just been killed) is still using JetStream at the time the licenses were killed, they will be advised that their connection to the server has been lost. See Lost connection with License Server for more information.
