Starting with DTP 2022.2, using only the License Server feature of DTP without enabling Report Center or other features in the Standard or Enterprise Edition is not supported. Users who only need License Server should use License Server Standalone (LSS). For users who were using DTP as a license server only, the process for migrating to LSS is described below. This procedure should be performed on the same machine that DTP was deployed on so the machine ID will remain the same.

To migrate from DTP to LSS:

  1. Stop DTP services. See Stopping DTP Services for details.
  2. Back up the following files from your DTP installation:
    • <DTP_DATA_DIR>/data/conf/oidc.json
    • <DTP_DATA_DIR>/data/conf/pstsec.json
    • <DTP_DATA_DIR>/data/conf/login_policy.json
  3. Back up <DTP_DATA_DIR>/pstsec/db.
  4. Back up <DTP_DATA_DIR>/LicenseServer.
  5. Install LSS, but do not start it yet.
  6. Copy the files from step 1 to <LSS_INSTALL_DIR>/data/conf.
  7. Copy files from step 2 to <LSS_INSTALL_DIR>/data/pstsec/db.
  8. Copy files from step 3 to <LSS_INSTALL_DIR>/data/LicenseServer.
  9. (Optional) Configure the following files as needed based on the same files in <DTP_DATA_DIR>/data/conf:
    • <LSS_INSTALL_DIR>/data/conf/PSTSecConfig.xml
    • <LSS_INSTALL_DIR>/data/conf/PSTRootConfig.xml
  10. Start LSS and verify everything is working in License Server and User Administration.

Tools that obtained their license from DTP should be reconfigured to obtain that license from LSS. See the License Settings documentation for the specific tool for more information.
