Configuring license settings using the config file
The license configuration file, license.ozsettings, specifies properties for how licenses are managed for HCL® AppScan® Source. The license.ozsettings file resides in <data_dir>\config (where <data_dir> is the location of your AppScan® Source program data, as described in Installation and user data file locations). You can use the command line to edit the file.
Most licensing for AppScan® Source is handled by the License Manager. Through the License Manager, you can configure licensing using a cloud license server, a local licenser server, or a proxy license server.
On the rare occasions that you must edit the license.ozsettings file
directly, the file directs licensing with these properties:
You must restart the License Manager after making edits to the
license.ozsettings file.
