HP Anyware Linux License Server Administrators' Guide

This guide is intended for system administrators who are either:

• deploying the HP Anyware Linux License Server as part of their Cloud Access Software solution where the License Server does not have connection to the public internet, or

• deploying internet-connected HP Anyware Linux License Server as part of their Cloud Access Software solution.

These instructions apply to online (internet-connected) and darksite deployments

The instructions and specifications included in this guide are common to both online and offline deployments of the HP Anyware License Server, unless otherwise noted. Each section of this guide indicates whether it applies to online use cases, offline, or both.

HP Anyware Linux License Server is a standalone service that handles both PCoIP session license registrations and PCoIP session request authorization.

This documentation assumes that you have a thorough understanding of virtual machines and networking concepts, including firewall configuration. Knowledge of Linux systems in general and RHEL or CentOS in particular will also be helpful, although all required Linux commands are included here.

Important: The License server is only required for local license management

This software is not required for organizations using Cloud Licensing.

Important: Access to teradici.flexnetoperations.com required

Before you can activate licenses with an offline license server, you must be given access to https://teradici.flexnetoperations.com. To request access, create a ticket with HP Anyware Support. Be prepared to provide a valid activation key, and the name and email address of a contact person who should have access.
