Question QI-005 (continued)
Please note that the following instructions are for installation of a node-locked license on Windows computers only.
The installation instructions for various other license types and platforms may be found
here.
System ID for Node-Locked License
To obtain the license file for a node-locked license, you need run the
"Install Node-Locked License" progam.
Start > Programs > ADINA System n.n > Install Node-Locked License
The system ID required for the node-locked license file is indicated by [A].
If the network card is enabled, the system ID is the ethernet card ID. If there is
no network card or if the network card is disabled, the system ID is based on the
disk ID.
Tip [B]:
On Windows 2000 and later machines, the network card is disabled when the network
connection is unplugged. Hence, if your computer is not always connected to the
network, it is important that you exit this program, disconnect your computer
from the network and then run this program again to obtain a system ID that is
based on the disk ID.
Installing a Node-Locked License
The easiest way to install the license is to use the Import button [C].
You can import two types of files:
- The license file that you receive from ADINA R & D via email. Make sure the license
file is named with a ".txt" extension.
- If you have an existing license file ("license.dat") for a previous version of ADINA,
you can import it to install the license for the current version. The
appropriate file type [D] should be selected.
When the license file is imported, the fields in the dialog box will be automatically
filled in. After clicking OK, the following window is displayed if the license
installation is successful.
If you need to receive your license file via fax, you will need to type in the fields
required manually. Please make sure that there is no leading or trailing spaces in
all the fields.
Problems
If you encounter problems when installing the license, please check that
- the date on your machine is correct
- the system ID [A] shown in the "Important Notes" box matches the system ID
in the license file.
