You can redirect license requests made from a Parasoft DTP Engines, such as the DTP Engine for C/C++, to a standalone License Server or to another instance of DTP. License requests can be delegated between two instances of DTP or between DTP and a standalone instance of License Server.

An example use case for DTP license request delegation would be if your organization has two DTP server installations for different sets of users and you want to maintain a common License Server for all DTP engines used throughout the organization. You could configure license redirection on one of the DTP servers to forward requests to the other License Server.

  1. Open the PSTRootConfig.xml configuration file in the [DTP_INSTALL]/conf directory of the DTP instance that you want to redirect license requests.
  2. Add following line in the <root-config> tag where http://host:port points to the common License Server:
     

    <license-requests-delegate-url>http://host:port</license-requests-delegate-url>
  3. Save configuration file and restart DTP Server (see Starting DTP Services).

 

The default port number License Server runs on is 2002. Make sure to use the full URL, including the http:// protocol prefix.
