A request file for activation of a container license must be created on the PC on which this container is active.

  1. Open the CodeMeter Control Center.

  2. Select the container and click <License Update>.

    The welcome window of the CmFAS (CodeMeter Field Activation Service) wizard opens.

  3. Click on <Next> and in the next window select the option “Create license request”.

    You can close the window using the [Esc] button.

  4. Click on<Next>.

    A selection dialog for the license request appears.

This is where the license request with a CmDongle differs from the license request with a soft license.

License request with CmDongle

  1. If you create the license request file with a CmDongle and want to change/extend an existing license, select the option "Extend existing license".

  2. From the list of software manufacturers, select the entry "iba AG (6000506)" and click <Next>.

  3. Select the storage location and file name for the license request file and click on <Commit>.

  4. You can close the confirmation window that appears.

You will need the generated file with the extension *.WibuCmRaC for the offline license transfer in WebDepot, see chapter Transferring licenses file-based.
License request with soft license

If you are using a soft license, select the location and file name for the license request file and click <Commit>.

You can close the confirmation window that appears.
