The Floating Licence<\/span> view displays information about the computers using the floating licence. <\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r This view is only displayed if a floating licence has been purchased. Evaluation users will not see this view.<\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r The screenshot above show two computers using the same 2 user floating licence, that has maintenance id 15838. Both computer users are licenced and can use the software.<\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r On startup the software automatically checks to see if a floating licence is available, and acquires the licence if possible. This takes a few seconds to process, after startup of the software.<\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r An internet connection is required for floating licences to work.<\/span> The licence server is managed and run by Software Verify. <\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r The information show in this display allows you to identify which of your colleagues are using the software and which versions of the software are in use. <\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r •<\/span>User <\/span><\/p> <\/span>The user id (1 to number of licensed users).<\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r •<\/span>Computer Name <\/span><\/p> <\/span>The name of the computer<\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r •<\/span>Computer User <\/span><\/p> <\/span>The login name of the user of the computer.<\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r •<\/span>Identifier <\/span><\/p> <\/span>The unique identifier for this licence, used on the licence server.<\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r •<\/span>ID <\/span><\/p> <\/span>The maintenance id for the software.<\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r •<\/span>Software Tool <\/span><\/p> <\/span>The software tool and version of the software that is running on that computer.<\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r •<\/span>Computer ID <\/span><\/p> <\/span>The unique id for this computer.<\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r •<\/span>IP Address <\/span><\/p> <\/span>This computer\'s IP address.<\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r <\/span><\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r If any additional users are trying to get a licence for the software, but there are not enough licences, they will also be shown in the display, but with red text on a yellow background. <\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r Please note that on the machine of an unlicensed user the status information will be different.<\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r The software checks to see if a licence has been released on a periodic basis, so that if a licence is released by another user, it can be acquired by the next waiting user.<\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r If you have finished using a licence and wish to let a team mate use the software, you have two choices. <\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r You can close Thread Validator, releasing the licence as it closes.<\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r Or you can keep Thread Validator running by manually releasing the licence. Do this by clicking the Release Licence<\/span> button.<\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r If you have released a licence you will need to actively reclaim a licence when you wish to use Coverage Validator again. You can start this procedure by clicking the Acquire Licence<\/span> button.<\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r"
