Advisor licenses management

[btestard]

Hi everybody,

I would like to know how the advisor licenses are managed by the software because the Advisor web users aren't defined in the licensing.exe?

For example, we have 50 licenses for Advisor and defined more than 50 users in the webusermapping tool.

How MEGA limits the simultaneous accesses to Advisor if we have more than 50 simultaneous connections to Advisor?

Thx in advance for your response!

Hello Bruno

The license is managed as follows for MEGA Advisor

The Must license should include at least

• MEGA Advisor Enterprise Edition
• MEGA Advisor Professional Edition
• A product (such as MEGA Architecture)

For both, a counter of maximum connections (CMC) is set, example 5

Check is not made when configuring user mapping.

Check is made a runtime during the login step

When a web user logs in, the counter of concurrent connections (CCC) is incremented by one.

Example

Initial situation, CCC = 0, CMC = 5

A web user #1 tries to login, CCC = 0, CMC = 5, login is authorized

A web user #2 tries to login, CCC = 1, CMC = 5, login is authorized

A web user #3 tries to login, CCC = 2, CMC = 5, login is authorized

A web user #4 tries to login, CCC = 3, CMC = 5, login is authorized

A web user #5 tries to login, CCC = 4, CMC = 5, login is authorized

A web user #6 tries to login, CCC = 5, CMC = 5, login is denied (counter of maximum connections is reached)
