Hi there,
Is there a limit to how many entitlements/features can local license server handle?
This is why I'm asking. We maintain a set of entitlements on FNO. Each of them has 24 or more features. Some counted, some fixed. We assign this entitlement to customer. When we need to increase the count for some feature for the customer, we add another instance of same entitlement to the customer. As a result of this, we end up with license server devices on FNO that have 100 or more entitlements and it becomes impossible to update local license server from FNO with capability request and loading response from file takes an hour.
Thanks, Milisav

Thank you, Jim. Through experimentation we found that deleting trusted storage works. I was wondering if there is maybe some REST call that client can make or some setting on license server that would make this possible without deleting trusted storage. But if there is no other way, that's fine. We can work with that.
Thanks again,
Milisav

Hi there,
I know how to set the HostId for LLS, but if I change it from ethernet type to VM_UUD or the other way around, when LLS already received some licenses, capability request fails with some error. I can only assume that I'm not doing something right. So, to clarify, this is what I'm doing:
- Start the license server with ETHERNET type ID
- Issue capability request to it and receive license features. Fine.
- Stop the license server, change the id to VM_UUID and start it up again.
- Issue capability request. Fails! And not because I don't have the device on FNO for new ID. I do.
Many thanks,
Milisav

Hi Jim, This is running on Windows, ethernet adapter is not disabled. It shows up in ipconfig /all. VM has 3 ethernet adapters. All enabled. Previously, license server used MAC address of one of the adapters for ID. See below. Thanks.

Hi there, Any idea why would Local License server (flexnetls.jar, version 2020.07.0) pick VM_UUID when not configured to do so? It is running on VM in Citrix environment. It initially picked MAC address for ID. This is default behavior. It worked like that for a while and now it shows that it switched to VM_UUID. It was not configured for that in flexnetlsw.xml. Furthermore it shows this as response to ID request (notice no ethernet ID at all): { "hostids" : [ { "value" : "15777EEC-3C24-6240-907F-077B95BXYZ23", "type" : "VM_UUID" } ], "selected" : { "value" : "15777EEC-3C24-6240-907F-077B95BXYZ23", "type" : "VM_UUID" } } Please not the actual ID is not real. I changed it, to avoid publishing customer specific data to public forum. Many thanks, Milisav Radulovic

Hi there, Would local license server (flexnetls) work if IP V4 is disable on the machine? With IP V6 only, would it be reachable by clients and talk to FNO via IP V6? I guess it would. Looking at the documentation and doing some tests. It is available to IP V6 clients. Just not sure about communication to FNO (Capability Request). Many thanks, Milisav

Hi Jim, I knew about these two options (Web Portals, unmap, followed by capability request or activation request with ID and copies). Our problem is that we are not storing activation IDs in license model attributes. We'll explore that option. Thanks, Milisav

Hi there, Is is possible to tell Local License Server (flexnetls.jar), via REST request, to return all license features to FNO? Basically, un-map all entitlements mapped to it on FNO. Many thanks, Milisav

Unsure if this is the right way or place for this issue, I created a new support case. I will close this one now. Thank you.

Hi there, As part or our solution we deploy your local license server (flexnetls.jar). One of our customers ran a scan and found 10 CVEs (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures) in flexnetls.jar, version 2018.09. Please see attached document. I see that there is newer version of flexnetls.jar, 2020.07. We can upgrade to that version. However, even in that version I see that you still have jackson-databind-2.8.x.jar. As you can see from attached document that version has known CVEs. Is your next release of flexnetls.jar going to have all of these CVEs addressed? Many thanks, Milisav Radulovic

Hi there, Could someone explain why would this file (flexnetls_licenses.mv.db) grow up to 17GB in some cases? When it does grow to be in GBs license server seems to be failing to return requested features. Thanks.
