The information on this page refers to License Statistics v6.13 and newer, which renamed "read-only mode" to "restricted access mode." If you are using a version previous to v6.13, see documentation for previous versions. |
Restricted access mode was introduced in License Statistics v6.0 to allow users to run License Statistics in order to do basic administrative tasks, even when the license limits have been exceeded or the license/maintenance has expired. Prior to v6.0, License Statistics would not start up in most cases related to license overuse or exceeded expiration time.

- Number of hosts exceeds the limit set in the license (not applicable to HPC licensing)
