Changing the order of license usage for clients by using Installation Manager

You can change the order that licenses are used by clients.

About this task

You can use the Manage Licenses wizard in the IBM® Installation Manager to change the license usage order. Use the License usage order page of the Manage Licenses wizard on the clients to change the license usage order. To change the order for web clients, use the License usage order page of the Manage Licenses wizard on the web servers. You might want to customize the license usage order in some cases. For example, change the order to have a product search for a specific license key first.

To change the license usage order:
  1. In the Installation Manager, click File > Open > Manage Licenses.
  2. Select a version of a package, and then select Configure license servers.
  3. Click Next > Next.
  4. Change the order of licenses in License usage order by clicking Up and Down.
  5. Click Finish.
Remember: For clients, the license usage order that you set on your computer is tied to your user ID. If different users log in to your computer with their own user IDs, the license usage order that you have changed is reset to the default order. The new users can set the license usage order for their user IDs. Their settings do not affect your settings.
