Shared licensing server

How do I go about getting the backup state changed on this shared licensing server? I'm guessing that EXPIRED is not a good thing. Also does this need to register with the primary shared license server? On the primary it says the backup licensing server is not registered.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the reply.
We have 1 HA pair in our primary DC (Active/Standby) and another HA pair in our DR site (Active/Standby) as well. The primary HA pair is the shared license server and the DR HA pair is the backup license server. From the primary HA pair I can ping the DR HA pair and vice versa. I find it odd that there is client info on the DR HA and not on the primary DC one. See below. Is this normal? And do you know of a way to reregister the DR HA to the primary DC one?

Shared License Server / AnyConnect Mobile

I have a pair of 5540's with Premiun and AnyConnect Mobile licenses, we purchased a pair of ASA 5545X and configured Shared Licensing, the client sees the license server and carried over the Premium Licenses, the probelm is it will not share /carry over the AnyConnect Mobile licenses.
Any feedback is greatly appreciated.

Thank you for the information. I ordered this product ->
L-ASA-AC-M-5545= AnyConnect Mobile - ASA 5545-X (req. Essentials or Premium)
The problem is after I installed the license and reboot it removed my 3DES capability, it also disbled the abiliby to do license sharing(this is a client). Why would this be removed when I already had it active and just trying to enable AnyConnect mobile functionalilty. See new show ver below, Help!

Hi I am facing issue with Remote Desktop Licensing, it is not showing the original available licenses decreasing on the RD Licensing server

When i added our license servers to one of the clients for RDS, and we three log in, i am seeing issued shows three now but i am still not seeing the total license count decreasing as we have licenses on per Device basis and have 200 licenses for
our 2012 server. In review configuration, everything is green.
Why am i not seeing the decrease and why is there a built-in overuse option coming up and retail purchase count not going down?
i wanted to paste an image but it says:
Body text cannot contain images or links until we are able to verify your account.

Hi,
1. What version is your RDSH server? Is it 2012/2012 R2 or 2008 R2 or something else?
2. If your RDSH is 2012/2012 R2, have you set the licensing mode to Per Device in RDS Deployment Properties? In addition, is the RDSH server part of a collection?
3. If your RDSH is 2008 R2, did you set the licensing mode to Per Device in RD Session Host Configuration (tsconfig.msc) or via group policy?
4. If you could post a ling to the screenshot on one of the image sharing sites we could view it from there. If not it would be helpful if you could provide the precise name of the pool (you need to make the column wider in RD Licensing) that the RDS
CALs are being issued from as well as the precise name of the pool for your purchased RDS CALs. The count columns would be helpful as well.
5. In the Event Viewer\ Applications and Services Logs\ Microsoft\ Windows\ TerminalServices-Licensing log on your RD Licensing server there should be events when licenses are issued. Please provide the event id and precise text of these events.
Thanks.

Sharing DB server among several SAP instances

When discussing possible server consolidation scenarios the following question arose:
Is it possible and supported to use one database server for several SAP instances?
E.g. One instance of SQL Server holds four databases for "dev" + "test" + "sandbox1" + "sandbox2"
and four servers (three of them virtual servers in VMware ESX) access this shared DB server to access their databases.
The idea is to have one heavyweight DB server accessing SAN and running the DB load of several non productive SAP instances. One would have to pay only one SQLServer license...
Kind regards, Rudi

Hi Dan,
The advantages of multiple instances/one database each are:
- Each instance can be stopped and started independently. This allows you to have downtime on one system without impacting another.
- Each instance can be patched separately. (This can also be viewed as a disadvantage from an admin overhead point of view)
- MS SQL memory parameters (min. server memory/max. server memory) are configued at the instance level therefore you can better configure these parameters to meet the specific requirements of the database e.g. R/3, BI, EP. The alternative is one memory setting for all DB types.
Thanks,
Chris

Please advise, any help you can provide would be very helpful. This is only happening with a select few of the books I packaged into the acs server. Using the exact same packaging and fulfillment process works fine for many of the pdfs we uploaded. There does not seem to be any common thread among the ones that fail vs. the ones that do not fail.
Things we have tried:
* Renaming the file prior to upload to have no spaces/special characters.
* deleting the product and trying again from scratch.
Has ANYONE seen this before? Or have any idea what could be the cause?
Thank you in advance,
Joe

Is the transaction in the fulfillmentToken really '123456789' and not '1079267236_0'?
At a quick look the exception is that it is unable to create a license for this. From memory the usual error for this is that the transaction is already recorded in the fulfillment table but there is no corresponding item in the license in the license table (join the user from the fulfillment table with the resource with the fulfillment item table - join is the fulfillmentid)

Trying to connect to a license server in a diffrent country

Our Client has just installed another SAP installation. They are trying to connect the hina SAP client to the Licence server in a diffrent country (the licese server has a Global licence )
the 2 countries are in diffrent time zones too.
so far we have not been successful!
typing in the ip address gives a error "Connection license server failed......."
I cannot find any documentation on this as well.
appreciate any help

Hi Gordon,
Our situaiton is diffrent - we are trying to share a licence server - thats in a remote server. see clarificaiton below.
The situaiton is they want to SHARE the LICENCE SERVER ONLY.
simply,
Australian server has a unique SAP installation with its own database
China server has a unique SAP installation with its own database
somewhere in the middle ( the lincense server is runing on a common server - that server too is in Australia but what matters is its common and needs to be shared)
Australia needs to see its own databses ONLY
China needs to see its own databases ONLY
Both Australia and China needs to be authenticated using the same common licence server as above

Server 2012 - Problem with multiple instances of RDS looking to the same license server. Server Pools requiring the wrong servers.

Hi All,
I have two domains, prod.local and test.local. On prod.local, I have a license server living on the connection broker. I have created a two way trust between the domains so that the RDS instance on test.local can use the license server on prod.local.
When I first setup the RDS instance on test.local and point it to use the license server on prod.local everything appears to work, all servers recognize the license server.
However when I log off and back on, and click the RDS dashboard in test.local, the Remote Desktop Services overview states I need to add every server from prod.local to the server pool. This is bothersome because the Remote Desktop Services on test.local
is still functioning, but I am no longer able to manage it. When I add the servers from prod.local to the server pool I am displayed the setup for prod.local instead of test.local
Is there a way around this? Can I use the same RDS license server key multiple times?
tldr: Using a different domain's license server causes my RDS instance in Server Manager to display the wrong RDS farm.

Hi Nathan,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server forum.
Please check the required ports must be opened on firewall.
- To issue RDS Per User CALs to users in other domains, there must be a two-way trust between the domains, and the license server must be a member of the Terminal Server License Servers group in those domains.
- To restrict the issuance of RDS CALs, you can add RDS Host Servers into Terminal Server Computers group on RDS Licensing servers.
- Configure RDS licensing server on all RDS Host Servers in each domain/forest. You can do it through RDS host configuration snap-in or through a group policy.
- Add administrators group of each domain/forest in the local administrators of RDS licensing server. This way, you’ll not get a prompt to enter your credentials when you’ll open RDS host configuration snap-ins in trusted domains/forests.

Hi all. I'm towards a project of implementing 4 deployments of RDS in branch offices and 1 in head office. Those tend to be VMs on Server 2012 R2.
I've began collecting info from technet and even found that great post:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/yungchou/archive/2010/01/04/remote-desktop-services-rds-architecture-explained.aspx
but I still can't figure out if I'm to use separate licensing server for all deployments or there is a possibility to use a single one for 5?

If all machines are in the same domain a single license server will be fine. you will just need to add the licence server to your individual deployments via server manager. We have a single license server for 2003TS, 2012RDS 2012citrix VDI and 2008 Citrix

Server 2012 R2 RDS- Only want the Session Host, Connection Broker and Licensing Server!

Hi all,
Wondering if anyone has experience with implementing Remote Desktop Services (RDS) on Windows Server 2012 R2.
I am doing an RDS design for a platform where we only need an RDS Session Host, Licensing Server and Connection Broker. We do not need web access as these servers will simply be jump boxes internally!
However, implementing this correctly in our test environment has proved to be tricky. The options are:
Use the Server Manager and do a traditional install via Roles and Features ( specifically add the Session Host, Licensing Server and Connection Broker). The installation process seems to go through ok in this scenario but when I head over to the Remote
Desktop Services section of the Server Manager I simply get the message 'An RDS Deployment does not exist in the server pool. To create a deployment head to Roles and Features'.
Use the specific ‘Remote Desktop Services installation’ option on the Server Manager and do a Session Based Desktop deployment and Quick Start. This installation process seems to go through correctly and the Remote Desktop Section seems to be working
correctly via the Server Manager. However this process is ‘hard locked’ i.e. it installs the session host, web access and connection broker. I can then remove the web access component later from Roles/ Features.
Is there a best practice (if any) for installation? i.e. Will there be any issues down the line if I remove RDS Web Access from my server while following method 2?
There is a complete lack of documentation from Microsoft here so not sure what to do! Just need a basic RDS session based deployment.

Hi,
As I know from server 2012\R2 the best deployment skill is to perform via “Remote Desktop Services” installation mode with Standard deployment and don’t let single role to install. Because when we install through RDS mode, there are specific extra tools and
services activated along with that deployment which you can’t find with single role installation. And that is for sure, when we install RDS role as of this, by default we will get install RDCB, RDSH and RDWA role installed.
Sorry don’t have any option to try to remove that role as that role basically needed for RemoteApp and Desktop purpose. But if you want then you can try it with help of “Remove-RDServer”Powershell command.

Hope it helps!

Hi John,
Yes,It was working earlier.
When I have added NTLM authentication for FDM I am getting that error,but instead of that if
I am adding the authentication provider as LDAP(CSS) I am not getting that error.
So finally i have added only one authentication provider and that is LDAP(CSS).
I fallowed ur document for integrating the FDM application with planning application.(http://john-goodwin.blogspot.com/2008/07/planning-v11-drill-back.html )
For the global logon information I have given admin and password , which I have given while adding the LDAP authentication (CSS).
I am getting machine profile missing error when i clicked on the dimension and the target dimension test box contain connection failed.
Can u suggest me where am I wrong?
Thanks

License server refimpl install

Hello everybody!
We got trial Flash access license server. We decided to enroll reference implementations first to test FA potentialities. For this purposes we have debian linux 2.6.26-2-xen-amd64 x86_64 with FA_2 distrib copied to it.
jdk1.6_20, MySQL 5.1, JDBC Driver, Tomcat 6.0.18 are installed as required in protectContent.pdf document.
Here is the sequence of steps made to deploy FA to this machine:
1.       In “/etc/profile” I’ve added JAVA_HOME=”/usr/” and CLASSPATH=”/root/Tomcat/6.0.18/libs:/root/javalibs/” variables
2.       I’ve copied java libs (.jar-s) needed for flashaccess.war build to /root/javalibs/ from FA distrib.
3.       Сonfigured build-refimpl.xml with corresponding directories in it.
4.       Run “ant –f build-refimpl.xml all” and it wrote it was successful.
Here is question number 1:
How can I check the application’s build was successful (except the ant’s build message “build successfull”)?
5.       I’ve copied edcws.war flashaccess-packager.war flashaccess.war from wars directory to /root/Tomcat/6.0.18/webapps.
6.       Top command showed me some java process activity after that (I think that was deployment process activity).
7.       Then I went to /root/Tomcat/6.0.18/webapps/flashaccess and saw this directory structure:
Here is question number 2:
What files should appear in application’s directory after deploying it’s flashaccess.war to the Tomcat container?
8.       I opened browser and put http://your server:server port/flashaccess/license/v1.
in the address link. Tomcat shows 404 error page (so the license server is not running correctly).
9.       In protectContent.pdf document it is said that if the license server reference implementation installation is correct then $CATALINA_HOME/AdobeFlashAccess.log file should be created. So I went to $CATALINA_HOME and opened it. Here is its output (the record bellow is repeated several times and there is nothing more in that file):
2010-10-07 18:50:16,655 INFO [com.adobe.flashaccess.refimpl.packager.RefImplPackagerServer] Packager thread started. Thread: Thread[WatchedFolderPackagerThread,1,main]
What records should I see if the server is working properly?
What did I miss in the configuration process to make the License server run properly?
And also there are two questions bellow:
1.       How can I check trial keys expiration date?
2.       Will default encryption policies (reference implementation) work correctly with trial keys?

[Eric] Before I start with your questions, I believe there may be some confusion between the 2 servers we offer with Flash Access. Below is a synopsis.
>> License Server for Protected Streaming is a bare-bones license server that does not support authentication out the box. This is what the Flash Access Quickstart Guide uses to set you up. The reasoning for this is that setting up this server requires minimal installation & is rather quick. However, as this server is bare-bones, it will only issue 1 type of license per tenant folder you have. Any policy you use to package content will be ignored, and instead, the tenant config will determine what licenses users receive.
>> Reference Implementation License Server is a full-fledged license server that requires a database (MySQL installer is included) which supports authentication out-the-box, and also issues licenses according to what is specified in the policy packaged with your content.
I take it that if you are not using the hardware module to store keys, then there is no need to have the pkcs11.cfg file in the licenseserver folder?
I get an error in the log file for when this file is not specified.
[Eric] Correct - if you are not using an HSM, you can safely ignore the pkcs7.cfg error in the logfiles.
1. I am not getting the logging that you are, so to see what I have done wrong is difficult. Which is the log4j.xml that the flashaccessserver uses and where is it located?
[Eric] It seems like you are using the License Server for Protected Streaming (which is what the Quickstart guide shows you how to install). The log4j.xml file is included in the flashaccessserver.war file itself. By default, the logs are stored at {LicenseServer.ConfigRoot}, which is defaulted to "tomcat/licenseserver/".
2. Following the steps that uwe mentioned, my player drm log reports that the user authentication is failing (with testuser3). What player are you using to test this? Are you running http://localhost:8080/player/SampleVideoPlayer_FP.html# ?
[Eric] The Protected Streaming License Server (which is what the Flash Access Quickstart guide references) does not support Authentication out-the-box. You will have to install the Reference Implementation (see the Protecting Content document section #9), or refer to this thread to determine how you can create an authorizer for the Protected Streaming License Server: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/726547?tstart=0
My call to http://localhost:8080/flashaccessserver/sampletenant/flashaccess/licen se/v1 responds 'License Server is setup correctly'
I've put the content such that calling http://localhost:8080/Indesign.f4v will download it.
When I use the sample video player, the auth fails with the message:
Authentication error event .... event type authenticationError Error code = 3305 [ServerConnectionFailed] Sub Error Code = 404
[Eric] If you are using the License Server for Protected Streaming (like you seem to be doing above), you should package your content with the License Server URL of: http://localhost:8080/flashaccessserver/sampletenant/
[Eric] If you are using the Reference Implementation License Server, you should package your content with the following License Server URL: http://localhost:8080/
So it seems like I am getting a 404, but for what resource I wonder?
[updated]
From access log:
127.0.0.1 - - [18/Oct/2010:13:27:52 +0100] "GET /flashaccessserver/sampletenant/flashaccess/license/v1 HTTP/1.1" 200 33
127.0.0.1 - - [18/Oct/2010:13:28:22 +0100] "POST /flashaccessserver/flashaccess/authn/v1 HTTP/1.1" 404 -

License server in data transfer workbench

Dear All Experts/Gurus,
I have a problem about log on to data transfer workbench (DTW). I don't understand why I must put numbers in license server field before log on to Data transfer workbench ? In the license server field of license administration form, I've seen the license server is words for example jimmymc, then beside it 40000.
I log on DTW, I fill jimmymc in the license server field but I've got error message:
"connection to jimmymc has failed. Error code 100000001. Connection with license server failed"
I don't understand why it succeeds if I fill numbers for example 130.1.2.5:40000, it works successful. What actually the function of license server field ? why could it be different with license server in the license administration form ?
I apreciate your answer. TIA
Rgds,

Jimmy,
The net-net is that ... the way you log into the DTW as of the 2005A version is different becasue the overall licensing mechanism used by SAP Business One for 2005 changed from what was used in version 2004. The licensing mechanism now uses CORBA. This allows connection without having to have an IP Address, but you can still use one as you have seen. When you install the License Server for Business One, the default connection "port" used and is defaulted to in the License Server is 30000 ... although you can change this to any port not being used. Again ... the net-net is that is how it works and that is what is now required for connection or use the IP.
HTH,
Eddy
