Checking the connection to a license server.
Problem:
How can a connection to a license server be checked without using Opcenter APS?
It appears that a license server is available, but Opcenter APS can't find licenses or is not available to use.
Solution:
Use Microsoft Windows PowerShell to test the connection.
- Determine the IP address or Domain Name of the license server computer
- Choose a port
- On the client computer, open Windows PowerShell
- In the Windows PowerShell window type the following
Test-NetConnection -Port <port> -ComputerName <computer name or ip address>
If successful, the output will be:
ComputerName : <computer name or ip address>
RemoteAddress : <ip address>
RemotePort : <port>
InterfaceAlias : <network adapter name>
SourceAddress : <client ip address>
TcpTestSucceeded : True
