Dear All!
I want to ask for an expert opinion about floating server reactivation.
By reactivation, I mean, fully offline deactivation, and then fully offline activation, with maybe a change in associated floatable client count.
I might be wrong, so please correct me if I’m mistaken, but the steps required are the following.
Also added some options to the command line to not mess up after grace is over.
Also, I tried to always include commandline args if needed:
-
DEACTIVATE FLOAT SERVER + GENERATE DEACTIVATION REQUEST
Enter command on float server machine
X:\Lexfloat>LexFloatServer.exe -d -orequest=X:\Lexfloat\sampleDeactivationRequest.dat -
SEND THE DEACTIVATION REQUEST TO THE LICENSER PERSON
Send the generated request file for deactivation (“sampleDeactivationRequest.dat”) via mail etc to the licenser person. Licenser registers a deactivation to Cryptlex via the acquired offline deactivate request. -
REQUEST NEW ACTIVATION
Enter command on float server machine
X:\Lexfloat>LexFloatServer.exe -g -pkey=XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX -orequest=X:\Lexfloat\sampleActivationRequest.dat -
SEND THE ACTIVATION REQUEST TO THE LICENSER PERSON
Send the generated request file (“sampleActivationRequest.dat”) to the licenser person. -
LICENSER PERSON SENDS BACK THE ACTIVATION RESPONSE
Licenser sends back a response file. In this example, it was “sampleActivationResponse.dat” -
ACTIVATE FLOAT SERVER
Enter command on float server machine
X:\Lexfloat>LexFloatServer.exe -a -pkey=XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX -pfile=X:\Lexfloat\Product.dat -config=X:\Lexfloat\cfg\LexFloat.config -oresponse=X:\Lexfloat\sampleActivationResponse.dat –graceperiod=0 -servercheckinterval=0
Is this the correct way for a full offline reactivation cycle?
Thank you for your response!
Best regards,
Csaba
