License Authorization Process

Step 6: Client Renews License

Each license code specifies the maximum time period that a license may be held by an application without renewal. After a client has received a license, it must periodically request a license renewal from the license server.

Forcing a license to be renewed allows a license server to reclaim a license when there is a problem with an application or a client computer. If the application does not renew its license within the allowed time, it loses its license and the server may grant it to another user.

Note: This action is handled by the application and is transparent to the user on the client computer.
