The transfer of licenses to a CmContainer via ticket is also referred to as activation. CodeMeter Runtime must be installed for license activations. If this is not the case, first complete the installation, see Installation and program start.
Three steps are necessary for each complete transfer:
-
License request
The current state of the CmContainer is transmitted to the WebDepot.
-
License update
The update contains the new state of the CmContainer. Each update is linked to a specific CmContainer and can only be imported on this CmContainer.
-
Receipt
After importing license updates, the receipt file contains the new state of the CmContainer. The transfer of the receipt file to the WebDepot documents the completion of the license transfer.
Depending on the type of license transfer (direct or file-based), the execution of the above steps differs
-
Direct license transfer - online activation:
License request, license update and creation/upload of the receipt file are performed automatically by the system after the start of the transfer, see Transferring licenses directly
-
File-based license transfer - offline activation:
The license requests, license updates and creation/upload of the receipt file must all be handled by the user. The necessary steps are described in detail in the WebDepot and in this manual, see File-based transfer and update of licenses (offline).

If a permanent property change is required for virtual machines (VMs), the license first needs to be returned while in a working state. Please contact iba support to begin with this process. |
