     The JIT Server requires a single user SuperServer (LXX) licence to operate. Use the New tab to install a license if you already have one. A License can be obtained via your LANSA vendor. See the LANSA Support web site for details on product licensing. (https://www.lansa.com/support/licensing/)

17. To generate a license request file for your PC or Windows server, you need to run the X_CPU utility on that machine.

     Your JIT Server install will have installed the x_cpu.exe program and created a shortcut in the preceding step, Step 1. Create a JIT Server Package

a.  Locate the X_CPU utility shortcut on your Start Menu.

b.  Double click the Licenses – X_CPU Utility shortcut, to run it. The X_CPU utility uses a network card in your machine as part of the unique identity which it generates. This means it will usually display a command prompt as shown because your PC has more than one network connection. Always select the hardware Ethernet card. Option 1 in this example.

     It will then display a message box, which provides the generated file's location.

c.  Send the x_cpu file to your LANSA vendor, requesting a temporary SuperServer server licence.

     See the LANSA Web Site for more information on licensing at:
https://www.lansa.com/support/licensing/

18. The license is supplied as an XML file, which is loaded via the New tab in the Server Licensing program. The shortcut for the JIT Server application will initially run the licensing program. This records where the license is installed so that it is accessible for any LANSA application on this machine.

     The license is only valid for the machine matching the X_CPU file details .
