Elastic Access Line Item

Note:This topic defines an Elastic Access line item for users of FlexNet Operations. The term “Elastic Access” line item is used to emphasize that it differs from the line item concept that users are familiar with from FlexNet Operations, as described below. In the remainder of this document, the terms “Elastic Access line item” and “line item” are interchangeable. Both refer to line items that can be mapped to an Elastic Access instance.

An Elastic Access line item captures an entitlement to a number of tokens which have been sold to an end customer, and which will be made available through an Elastic Access instance. It requires the product-feature-license model structure described in section Tokens.

•

An Elastic Access line item will be automatically mapped to an Elastic Access instance accessible to the end customer (only one instance may be used for an end customer—if a customer has multiple line items for Elastic tokens, these will all be mapped to the same instance).

•

An Elastic Access line item may not be mapped to any other license server (such as a FlexNet Embedded Cloud License Server or local license server).
