Products

The Products page lists all the Products available on all accessible Sentinel License Managers on the network.

For Products listed, detachable licenses may be available. A detachable license is a Sentinel SL license for a Product that includes Features that are detachable from the license key. The license for the Product and detachable Features can be detached from the pool of network licenses for a limited period and attached to the local machine or any other recipient machine. This allows the Product to be used even when the recipient machine is not connected to the network.

If a Product includes detachable licenses, you can:

>Detach a license by clicking Detach (or Detach/Extend)

>Extend a detached license by clicking Detach/Extend

A page is displayed that enables you to provide details for detaching a license or extending the duration of an already-detached license.

If a detachable license has been attached to the local machine, and you want to return the license to the pool of network licenses before it expires, click Cancel License. A page is displayed that provides details about the detachable license and enables you to cancel the license.

To display this page:

From the navigation pane, go to the Products page.
