Administering the License Key
CentraSite is equipped with a license key that enables you to use the CentraSite software. The license key determines:
Which edition of
CentraSite you are licensed to use.
The date until which your license is valid.
Relationship between the License Key and Editions
In addition to the full-feature CentraSite edition, Software AG also offers the free-of-charge CentraSite Community Edition. Your license key determines which edition is enabled for your instance of CentraSite.
If you do not specify a license key during the installation procedure, CentraSite is installed with a default key, which enables the Community Edition. The default key has no expiration date. If you are licensed to use the full-feature edition, you will receive an additional license key from Software AG, and you can specify this key either during the installation procedure or in a separate step after the installation procedure.
Identifying the CentraSite Edition
To determine the CentraSite edition that is running, start CentraSite Control. You can start CentraSite Control from the Windows Start menu on the machine where Software AG Runtime is installed, or you can open a browser and type the URL: http://Software AG Runtime_server:Software AG Runtime_port/PluggableUI/Control
The default user ID and password are Administrator and manage respectively.
The banner at the top of the screen indicates the CentraSite edition . If the Community Edition is running, this is indicated in the banner, otherwise the full-feature edition is running.
