If a customer is using HAL (LM-X License Manager’s High Availability Licensing), you must provide HostIDs for all three HAL servers when you create a license order. However, LAC allows only one set of HostIDs for one machine (local machine HostIDs for node-locked licensing or server HostIDs for network licensing).
To create a license order for a customer who is using HAL, follow the general instructions for creating the license order as given in Creating and managing license orders, but use the following steps when completing the HostID information:
<SETTING ETHERNET="00170843C3DF"/>
</SERVER_HOSTID>
<SERVER_HOSTID>
<SETTING HOSTNAME="hostname"/>
</SERVER_HOSTID>
<SERVER_HOSTID>
<SETTING ETHERNET="00170843C3DD"/>
</SERVER_HOSTID>
You can also use Soap_LicenseOrder in the SOAP API to specify the HAL server HostIDs as described above.
