| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Name | The name for the license server that will be displayed in License Statistics. This can be any descriptive, unique name that helps you identify the license server in License Statistics pages. |
| Enabled | Check this box to enable monitoring for the license server. When this box is not checked, monitoring for the license server is disabled and the license server will not appear in any License Statistics pages. Only enabled license servers are counted in the number of license servers you can monitor according to your License Statistics license agreement. You can add any number of disabled license servers. If you have reached your limit of license servers you can monitor, you can disable any license servers that you do not need to monitor and enable the license servers you do need to monitor. |
| License Manager Type | The type of license manager you are using for the license server. This selection list includes all supported license managers. |
| Query Tool Path | The path to the license manager's query tool defaults to license_statistics_installation_directory/query_tool_default_name, where the query tool default name is specific to the license manager being used, as follows:
Edit the path if needed and make sure the query tool is in the specified path. |
