Stop deployment otherwise

Specifying licensing settings

Based on your selection, the software will use a deployment license (which enables a single
successful deployment) or a machine license (which enables an unlimited number of deployments to
a machine). Based on the operating system you are deploying, a workstation license or a server
license will be used.

If no appropriate license is available on the license server, the software can either stop deployment
to the machine, or use an alternative license.

Tip: To force a machine license to be used for a particular machine, you can specify the Licensing setting as an
individual setting (p. 131)
for that machine.

When you deploy a workstation operating system (p. 15) and you selected the Use a server license
automatically
option, the software will use a server license if no workstation license can be used.

Example

Suppose that you are deploying a workstation operating system. Consider the following settings:

During deployment: Use deployment licenses

If there are no deployment licenses: Use a machine license automatically

If the license server is out of workstation licenses: Use a server license automatically

With these settings, the software will use a license based on the following priority:

a) Deployment workstation license
b) Machine workstation license
