Migrating Administration Tools
This chapter provides assistance in migrating any license-administrator tools that you have deployed with the SA and that use the license server’s XML endpoints.
The SA uses REST APIs (endpoints) in XML format to access and post license server data; the LLS uses REST APIs in JSON format. You can rewrite your administrative tool using the new APIs for LLS. The following table provides a reference for mapping the functionality between the XML and JSON formats of the two license servers.
