Hi,We don't normally allow our software to activate a trial in a hypervisor. However, we would like to allow it internally for test purposes.
The "Allow VM activations?" option is disabled on the licensing server for the product version.
In the application, I've noticed that for unverified trials, I can allow/disallow VM trials using the TA_DISALLOW_VM flag. UseTrial(TA_USER | TA_UNVERIFIED_TRIAL, null); // allows vm trial UseTrial(TA_USER | TA_UNVERIFIED_TRIAL | TA_DISALLOW_VM, null); // disallows vm trial
However, for verified trials, the flag has no effect. Verified VM trials are always disallowed. UseTrial(TA_USER | TA_VERIFIED_TRIAL, null); // vm trial disallowed !?!?! UseTrial(TA_USER | TA_VERIFIED_TRIAL | TA_DISALLOW_VM, null); // vm trial disallowed
Is the verified trial ignoring the local flag and only looking at the setting on the license server? Or is it looking at the VM setting in the DAT file?
Thanks,Carol
Hey Carol,
For verified trials, like product keys, it looks at the settings you've set on the servers. So if you've selected "Disallow VM activations" in the version level in LimeLM, then Verified trial will not work for that version on VMs.
Does that make sense?
Makes sense. Thanks, Wyatt.
Carol
