  1. Create an activation request. To do this, you must collect the computer's HIDs using the LS_tool utility by running it in the command line:
    Code Block
    C:\Program Files\Common Files\VMS\VMS License Server>LS_tool.exe --collect-hwinfo
    Note
    titleAttention!

    The key binds to the License Server,not to Axxon PSIM. When using the Guardant key, make sure that the USB key is connected to the server where you install the License Server.

  2. Contact an AxxonSoft technical support specialist to get the necessary License-server_InstallerWix.zip package and the keyfile.zip license key package for the private License Server.
    The keyfile.zip key package contains:
    1. Certificate: ngp.licserver.crt
    2. Private key: ngp.licserver.key
    3. Server key: server.license.key
    4. Client key: license.key
  3. Run the License-server.msi file from the package received from an AxxonSoft technical support specialist. The installation is performed in the C:\Program Files\Common Files\VMS\VMS License Server directory.
    Once installed, the following is added:

    1. The VMS License Server program is added to Programs and Features.
    2. The VMS_License_Service is added to Services. It starts immediately after the installation. After restarting the server, the service starts automatically. In Task Manager in Processes, the process of the running service is called license_service.exe. After completing the process, a new process starts in one minute.
  4. Add the server.license.key to the C:\Program Files\Common Files\VMS\VMS License Server\keys folder.

    titleNote

    When installing, make sure that the UI folder is unzipped from the license-server-ui.zip archive.

  5. Rename the ngp.licserver.key private key to private.key and the ngp.licserver.crt certificate to keyfile.crt and add them to the C:\Program Files\Common Files\VMS\VMS License Server folder. Confirm the file replacement.
  6. Create a .bat file with the following contents (port 443 must be open):
    Code Block
    set Path_to_server=C:\Program Files\Common Files\VMS\VMS License Server
    
    SET LEASE_ACCOUNTER_LSTOOL_PATH=%Path_to_server%\LS_tool.exe
    SET LEASE_ACCOUNTER_PUBLIC_KEY=%Path_to_server%\public.pem
    SET LEASE_ACCOUNTER_TLS_CERTIFICATE=%Path_to_server%\keyfile.crt
    SET LEASE_ACCOUNTER_TLS_CERTIFICATE_KEY=%Path_to_server%\private.key 
    SET LEASE_ACCOUNTER_TLS_AUTH_ENABLED=true
    SET LEASE_ACCOUNTER_LOG_DIR=%Path_to_server%\logs\
    SET LEASE_ACCOUNTER_BADGER_DIR=%Path_to_server%\badger
    SET LEASE_ACCOUNTER_LICENSE_FILES_DIR=%Path_to_server%\keys
    SET LEASE_ACCOUNTER_PORT=443
    SET LEASE_ACCOUNTER_HTTP_PORT=86
    
    license-server.exe
  7. Run the created .bat file.
  8. Wait for the full download and close the window.
  9. In the C:\Program Files\Common Files\VMS\VMS License Server\keys folder, delete the server.license.key. Only the key named as the system ID must remain in the folder.
  10. Re-run the .bat file again.
