Changing the license server used by the management server

By default, the management server uses the integrated license server. You can make the management server use a different license server. If you already have a separate license server, this functionality helps you to migrate the license server to new hardware.

Before changing the license server, make sure to export the licenses from the old license server and then add them to the new one.

To change the license server

1. Connect the console to the management server.
2. In the Navigation pane, click Licenses.
3. In the Actions menu, select Change license server.
4. Specify the name or IP address of the machine with the license server.
5. Click OK.

After changing the license server, the management server deploys the new license server's IP address to the registered machines and they start using the new license server.
