Licenses for __PTS_RR_NAME__

You can find information about the licenses that you can purchase to use __PTS_RR_NAME__.

Processor value unit (PVU) licensing

In this licensing mode, you receive printed versions of the licenses. No configuration is necessary.

For more information about Processor value unit (PVU) licensing and token licensing, see License descriptions.

Agent mode (simultaneous session) licensing

From Version 8.5.0.2 onwards, __PTS_RR_NAME__ provide support for Agent mode licensing, which is also known as simultaneous session licensing. In this type of licensing, you can use token licenses. This licensing requires that a Rational® License Server be installed in the environment and configured with valid licenses in order for HCL OneTest™ API Agent to operate. Additionally, the Agent must be configured with the details of the license server so that the Agent is able to communicate with the license server at runtime.

For more information about simultaneous session licensing, see http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27039621.

Simultaneous session licensing requires manual configuration. For information about configuring the agent to support token licenses, see Configuring agents to support token licensing.
