Problem Statement:
Is Administrative privileges required to setup commuting on a client machine?
Solution:
There is a one-time setup process to enable commuting on the client machine that requires Administrative privileges. Once the setup process is complete, Administrative privileges are no longer required to commute a license.
To setup commuting, follow these steps:
Run the
aspenONE SLM License Manager
as an
Administrator
.
Click the
Config
button to run the
SLM Configuration Wizard
.
Click
Apply Changes
.
Click
Show Details
. If you see a list of license keys, then the license initialization is complete and commuting is enabled.
An alternative to enable commuting is to run the file
SLMLicenseInit.exe
located in the
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Aspentech Shared
folder. You can run SLMLicenseInit.exe 3 different ways:
Right-click and select
Run as Administrator
.
Open an
Administrative Command Prompt
and type:
cd “C:\Progam Files (x86)\Common Files\Aspentech Shared”
and press the
Enter
key. Then type:
SLMLicenseInit.exe
and press the
Enter
key.
As part of your aspenONE deployment package, create a custom script that will run SLMLicenseInit.exe after installing aspenONE.
What does SLMLicenseInit.exe do?
When SLMLicenseInit.exe is executed, it downloads SLM data from the license server and stores it in the
C:\ProgramData\SafeNet Sentinel\Sentinel RMS Development Kit\System
folder. This data is required for commuting to work. The
“System”
folder requires
“Write”
security privileges to be enabled.
