System Administration Enhancements

The following FlexNet Operations system administration enhancements were included in 2021 R1.

Custom Message on the End-User Change Password Page
Configuration to Provide “Privacy Terms and Agreement” for Self-Registering Users
Administrator Permission to Set CLS Password
Localization for Certain Custom Content IDs

Custom Message on the End-User Change Password Page

Producers can now add a custom message to the End-User Change Password page (for example, if they want to provide more information about password requirements). The content for this message is defined using the new configuration setting, System > System Configuration > End User Portal Setup > Login Page > Custom Message. Currently, no size restriction is applied to the message text.

Configuration to Provide “Privacy Terms and Agreement” for Self-Registering Users

Administrators can now configure a “Privacy Terms and Conditions” link on the Register for Account page for self-registering users in the End-User Portal. The options to configure the link—Enable terms and conditions panel and Terms and conditions URL—are found in the General Options section of the End-User Portal Setup page in System > Configure.

Administrator Permission to Set CLS Password

FlexNet Operations administrators now have permission to reset the Cloud Licensing Server (CLS) producer user password for both existing and future Cloud License Server (CLS) instances. (A producer user password is used to obtain Authorization tokens for all instances.) Administrators can set this password using the Enable Producer User for CLS option and the associated Producer User’s Password for CLS field found in the Embedded Device Settings section of the FlexNet Operations page in System > Configure.

Localization for Certain Custom Content IDs

Producers can now localize the following Custom Content IDs, used to display custom instructions and information on specific End-User Portal pages:

DownloadContent
epAnnouncements
ForgotOrResetPassword

Custom Content IDs are defined using the System > Custom Content page in the Producer Portal. To localize the content associated with the IDs listed above, you must add the locale code as a suffix to the ID. For example, to localize the epAnouncements content for France, add the “-fr_FR” suffix to the ID:

epAnnouncements-fr_FR

For more information about Custom Content, refer the online Producer Portal User Guide.
