License Server Management and Statistics Pages

A system administrator can manage and access information about the license server at: http://hostName:port/oXygenLicenseServlet.

This page provides access to several statistics reports and management tasks. It also displays the current status of the server and provides additional instructions for using the license server with Oxygen XML Editor/Author/Developer.

This page includes the following links for accessing statistics or managing tasks:
  • Current Allocated Licenses - Opens the Allocated License Report page.
  • Usage Statistics (Available only for floating licenses) - Opens the License Usage Statistics page.
  • View License Key - Use this link to open a page where you can see details about the license key.
  • Replace/Remove License Key - Use this link if you need to replace or remove the current license key.
  • Configuration - Opens a page where you can configure notification settings and set up the mail server used for sending emails whenever license requests from users are rejected. This page also contains a Allow users to lock licenses option. Enabling this option allows the users to lock/reserve a floating license.
  • Users management (Available only for named-user licenses) - Opens a page where you can manage the list of users who are entitled to use the license key.
  • Allowed users list (Available only for named-user licenses) - Opens a page where you can see the allowed users list (if one has already been configured), along with instructions for configuring one.

Allocated License Report Page

This report page provides a system administrator the ability to revoke or unlock current running instances of licenses and includes the following information:
  • License load - A graphical indicator that shows how many licenses are available.
  • License server status - General information about the license server status, such as start time, license counts, rejected and acknowledged requests, average usage time, license refresh and timeout intervals, location of the license key, and the server version.
  • Current running instances - Lists all currently acknowledged users, including user name, date and time when the license was granted, IP and MAC address of the computer where Oxygen runs, and lock status.
    • Revoke - A system administrator can click on the Revoke icon next to a user name to release that particular license and return it to the pool.
    • Unlock - If a user has locked their license, the system administrator can also unlock it from this page.
Note: This report is also available in XML format at: http://hostName:port/oXygenLicenseServlet/license-servlet/report-xml.

License Usage Statistics Page (Floating License Only)

This report page provides some usage statistics for the floating licenses. It is helpful for determining the number of licenses that are needed and monitoring times when licenses are consumed. It includes the following information:
  • Maximum number of concurrent licenses - Shows the maximum number of floating licenses that can be consumed at any given time.
  • Concurrent license consumption per day - A chart that shows the peak number of licenses that were consumed and the total number of users that were rejected, on a daily basis. This chart can be used to detect the amount of concurrent licenses that are needed to avoid having rejected users.
    Tip: You can click on any bar to see the license consumption per hour for that particular day.
    Figure 1. Concurrent License Consumption per Day Chart
  • Concurrent license consumption per hour - A chart that shows the peak number of licenses that were consumed per hour throughout that particular month. This is useful for identifying the time of day when the most licenses were consumed.

Users Management Page (Named-User License Only)

When a named-user license key is used, the license server allocates available licenses in the order they are requested until the maximum number is reached. Any additional users attempting to obtain a license key will be rejected.

This page provides access to the list of registered users and allows the server admin to:
  • Revoke a user's right to use a license.
  • Reactivate a previously deactivated user.
