Automatic activation requires that you have an Internet connection.
The Activation wizard will make a one-time connection with a Precisely server. Using the activation credentials that came with your product, the Activation wizard will retrieve one of the licenses your organization purchased and associate it with your computer.
To activate a server license automatically:
-
On the Windows Start menu, point to Program Files, MapInfo, License Server, License Server Utility to start the License Server Utility.
The License Server Utility application window displays on the screen. You may see one or more existing licenses listed in the application window.
-
On the License menu, click Activate.
The
Specify Activation Credentials dialog box displays on the screen.
-
Enter the serial number, access code, and the number of licenses for the License Server, and click Next.
The Select Activation Method dialog box displays on the screen.
-
Select Automatic Activation, and click Next.
The Activation wizard takes a few moments to transfer the activation credentials to Precisely and perform the activation. When the activation is completed, a message dialog box displays on the screen to tell you that the activation was successful.
-
Click OK.
The License Server Utility displays the number of licenses that you specified during the activation.
For information on server tasks and viewing license information, see
