Named user licenses
You can purchase named user licenses, and then install the licenses on the FlexNet Operations server to access HCL OneTest™ Server.
Only an administrator can configure the named user license option in HCL OneTest™ Server. When the users access the Configure Licenses option, they can view only the following information in the Available licenses dialog box:
-
The number of named user licenses that are currently in use.
-
The URL and ID of OneTest License Server.
-
Whether the self-acquisition of named user licenses option is enabled or disabled.
-
The name and email ID of the users that are configured as named users by the administrator.
The named user licenses are automatically self-acquired on a first-come-first-serve basis. As an administrator, you can add users to the Named Users list. The licenses are always available for the added users though the self-acquisition of named user licenses option is disabled in the License configuration window. If the automatic self-acquisition option is disabled, only the users who are added to the Named Users list can perform the other project tasks in HCL OneTest™ Server. However, the other users receive an error notification about the unavailability of the license when they try to perform the project tasks.
A single named user license is used from the total number of named user licenses under any of the following conditions:
-
When you create a project after you log in if you are not a member of any other project.
-
When you are approved as a member of a project if you are not the owner of any project.
The named user license is returned to the license pool only under any of the following conditions:
-
When the named user is no longer a member of any projects.
-
When the named user is removed as a user of HCL OneTest™ Server.Important: The named user license takes a few minutes to be returned to the license pool.
