Distributed and Redundant License Server Models – Notes

Distributed License Server Model
===================
Licenses distributed across multiple servers
Unique license file for each server
Servers can be distributed across a WAN
If one server fails, licenses are still available

Redundant License Server Model
===================
Three servers on one system
One master, two backups
Same license file on all servers
Provides backup if one server fails
Same subnet – close proximity
