Purchasing

Make sure you purchase the floating license version, this is the only version that can be floated through a flexlm server. Keep track of the Customer Location Code (CLC).

License

Relocation

Relocation is required if you move the flexlm server to another machine, or you have a license file created with 1 hardwareid that you want to use on another server. Alias will provide you with a new license file if you fill in the relocation form: http://www.alias.com/relocation
