License server group features are an aggregation of all features with the same name, version, and type on any license server that is contained in the group.
Example
Let's assume we have three license servers: server PL in Poland, server US in the United States, and server DK in Denmark. Each server contains the feature Windows XP Floating (WXPF) and belongs to a license server group called XF. The XF license server group has the aggregated data gathered for each WXPF feature on PL, US, and DK.
The total available licenses for WXPF per license server are:
- USA = 10
- PL = 10
- DK = 10
Therefore, the total available licenses for WXPF for the license group XF = 30.
