Managing Licenses Available via License Server

Administration through the JetBrains Account

From within your JetBrains Account Profile you can:

1. View all licenses associated with your license server.

   

   

2. Purchase additional licenses and renewals as well as request quotes if you are a commercial customer.

From the Administration menu of your JetBrains Account Profile you can invite or remove administrators from the license server. To invite a new license server administrator, click the Invite Admin button.

A new window will open and display a link for inviting a new person to manage the license server. You can either copy and paste the link or click the ‘Go to email client’ button to send an email. Alternatively, choose Remove or Leave to remove an administrator from the list.

License Server Management

You can also Choose Manage Licenses from your server dashboard and choose Proceed for the product that you want to manage.

This allows you to move available licenses to your license server. To move licenses to the server, simply enter the required number of licenses and click the Move to server button.

To move licenses back to the regular team and make them available for use via invitations, look under the heading showing how many licenses are on the server and click Manage Licenses.

Returning to the previous screen will allow you to view how many licenses are reserved via invitation. You can also choose to manage your licenses: create invitations, generate keys, request quotes, or make purchases.

Convert licenses from named to floating

By performing this conversion, licenses are made distributable via Floating License Server instead of being assigned to particular users via their JetBrains Account. To make this change, move licenses from regular team to License Server one as described in "License Server Management" section earlier on this page.

Convert licenses from floating to named

By performing this conversion, licenses are made no longer distributable via Floating License Server and converted to being assigned to particular users via their JetBrains Account instead. To make this change, move licenses from License Server team to regular team as described in "License Server Management" section earlier on this page.

Issue permanent licenses

The purpose of a local license server is to allow floating licensing. If you want to issue permanent licenses via invitations instead, use JetBrains Account to invite users.

1. Move licenses to the regular team.

2. Distribute named licenses via global license server.

For your convenience the license management process is described in video tutorials.

Access restrictions

Floating license server does not support access restriction. To limit access, you can monitor the list of users, IP addresses and block connections to license server for particular users by IP address on infrastructure level.
