Requires System-level License - View permissions to view the license information

System Users in a role with the appropriate System-level permissions can view the license information for the system. By default, a System Administrator and System Manager have permissions to view the system license information. A System Member does not have view permissions for the license. For information about System-level permissions, see View and Manage System Role-Based Permissions.

There is one license file per system (Realm), installed on the Service Node.

License Information

The license information includes the following fields in the Label column and the appropriate value in the Value column:

  • Mode — Either a Permanent license or a Term license. If your site has a Term license, the software displays to each user at login time an expiration warning five days before the license is due to expire. Contact your Digital Reef representative about obtaining a permanent license if you wish to continue using the software.
  • Application — The name of the product to which this license applies (Digital Reef).
  • Issued to —The name of the institution or person that has obtained the license.
  • Contact email — The email address of the contact person at the institution that has obtained the license.
  • Issued by — The company that has issued the license (Digital Reef).
  • Number of Analytic Engine cores – The maximum number of Standard Analytic Node Cores supported by the license. For a given license, each type of Analytic Node has a maximum core value for the license and each limit is upheld.
  • Number of OCR cores – The maximum number of OCR Node processing Cores that this license supports.
  • Number of Express cores – The number of Express Node processing Cores that this license supports.

Note: Any Node that is not in compliance with the terms of the license will be in a Not Licensed state (for example, if you try to add a Realm Node of given type and that addition exceeds the core limit for that type). The Monitoring screen will identify a Node that is in a Not Licensed state.

  • Encrypted Host ID 0 – The unique license identifier that was generated at this site for the Service Node based on its host ID. This field is used by Digital Reef to produce a license key that is valid for a Service Node. Any Service Node whose host ID is not in the license file will not start. In this case, upgrade the license file to include the host ID of the Service Node.
  • Issued on –The exact date on which Digital Reef generated the license file. This is a full timestamp.
  • Valid until – The exact date on which the license file becomes invalid. This is also a full timestamp. Once the license has expired, a System Administrator trying to log in will see an error and should contact Digital Reef Customer Support to acquire a valid license. Users of the system will not be able to perform any new operations once the license has expired.
