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, Rational® Performance Test Server 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 Rational® Integration Tester 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.
