1.Dr.Web Server is not licensed.
|
Server UUID which was stored in the Server license key in the previous versions of Dr.Web Enterprise Security Suite, now is stored in the Server configuration file (starting from the 10 version). •During the new Server installation, the new UUID is generated. •During the Server update from the earlier versions, UUID is automatically taken from the Server key of previous version (the enterprise.key file from the etc folder of the previous Server installation) and is written to the configuration file of the installing Server.
When updating the Servers cluster, the Server which is responsible for database updating, gets a license key. For other Servers it is necessary to add a license keys manually. |
2.License keys are relevant for protected stations only. You can assign a license either for separate stations or for stations groups: in this case, a license key is valid for all stations which inherit it from this group. To assign a key file simultaneously for all stations of anti-virus network, for which personal settings of license key are not specified, assign the license key for the Everyone group.
3.A license key file can be set during the installation of Dr.Web Server (see Installation Manual, p. Installing Dr.Web Server).
However, the Server can be installed without a license key. A license can be added later either locally or received via the interserver communication.
4.Via the interserver communication, optional number of licenses from keys at this Server can be donated to a neighbor Server for a specified time slot.
5.You can use several different licenses, e.g. with different license validity time or different set of anti-virus components for protected stations. Each license key can be assigned for several licensing objects (groups and stations) simultaneously. For one licensing object can be assigned several license keys simultaneously.
6.When you assigning several keys to the object, please consider the following features:
a)If lists of allowed anti-virus components in several keys of one object differ, then the list of allowed components for this station is defined by intersection of keys components sets. E.g., if for stations group a key with Anti-spam support and a key without Anti-spam support are assigned, then the Anti-spam cannot be installed on the stations.
b)Settings for object licensing are calculated according of all keys assigned to this object. If keys expiration dates are differ, after nearest expiration date is out, you need to replace or remove expired key manually. If expired key limits an anti-virus components installation, it is necessary to adjust licensing object settings in the Installing Components section.
c)The number of licenses of the object is calculated as a sum of licenses from all the keys which are assigned to this object. Also consider the opportunity to donate licenses via the interserver connection to a neighbor Server (see p. 4). In this case, you should subtract the licenses donated to a neighbor Server from the total number of licenses.
