Configuring a CLC Network License Manager connection in a license.properties file

To configure a connection to your site's CLC Network License Manager without launching each CLC Workbench:

• Launch one CLC Workbench.
• In the License Assistant of that Workbench, choose the option Configure license manager connection and provide the relevant information.
• Close the Workbench after the license connection has been configured.
• Find the file called license.properties under the settings folder in the Workbench installation area.
• Copy the license.properties into the settings folder of each of the other Workbench installations.

A license.properties file created this way will contain the following lines. The information after the = sign depends on what was entered in the License Assistant.

serverip=your.license.server
serverport=6200
disableborrow=false
autodiscover=true
useserver=true
username=
usecustomusername=false

A sample license.properties file containing settings relevant for connecting to a CLC Network License Manager can be downloaded from
https://resources.qiagenbioinformatics.com/deployment/license.properties.

If the Workbench has previously been configured to use the QDI Licensing Service, this file will also have a line for the property use_qdi_licensing. Ensure this line is deleted, or the value set to false, i.e. use_qdi_licensing=false.
