You can activate your license on a different host than the License Statistics server, as described below. However, this method is recommended only in case there are issues using these preferred methods described on Activating a License Statistics license page.
Perform the following steps to activate a License Statistics license on a machine that is not connected to the internet.
- Copy the License Activator tool to the host (available online or under the tools directory in Windows installations as of License Statistics v6.10).
- Run the License Activator and select the option to export all the computer's HostIDs to a .hostid file.
- Copy the HostIDs file and License Activator to the machine that has internet access.
- From the machine that is connected to the internet, do the following:
- Run License Activator.
- Select the option to activate a license over the internet, and enter your Activation Key (sent to you via email). If you cannot locate your activation key, request it by contacting us.
- Select the option to activate a license for a different computer and specify the HostIDs file path.
- Click Next to continue, and then click Activate to start the activation.
A final screen displays the progress and success (or failure) of the license activation. When activation has been completed successfully, you will see the license file in the same location as the License Activator tool. - Close the License Activator window.
- Upload the license file to License Statistics using UI or CLI as described on Activating a License Statistics license page.
