Configuring ControlSuiteThe Configuration Assistant walks you through the setup of databases, services, security and authentication, and licensing the ControlSuite solution. The configuration assistant must be completed in order, and as you complete the steps, the navigation menu items becomes "active", and you can click on any completed section to review or make changes as needed.
Licensing ControlSuiteA license server must be installed on at least one system in your deployment. All ControlSuite components pull licenses from this license server and maintain local "license cache" so that they can stay licensed for 7 days if connection to license server is lost. All licensing is performed in the Configuration Assistant for all products. The license information can be viewed within the individual products consoles, but cannot be changed in this view. ControlSuite utilizes a Licensing Entitlement Portal where license servers, accounts and users are managed, and license entitlements are activated and deployed.
