Named License Pools

You can define one or more named license pools under the optional partitions element. If you do not specify a named license pool, all feature counts are placed in the default license pool. (The naming of the element stems from previous releases of the FlexNet Embedded license server, where named license pools were referred to as “partitions”.)

Each named license pool is introduced by a partition element, followed by the name of the license pool. You then specify one or more features that the named license pool should contain. For each feature, you need to specify the feature name, feature version, and feature count. The feature count can be expressed as a number or as a percentage of the overall feature count that is available on the license server.

Example

partitions {

partition "p1" {

"f1" 1.0 50

"f1" 2.0 25

"f2" 1.0 100

}

}
