Reserve activations for groups of host computers

Edit the Options file to organize host computers in a group and reserve activations for the group.
To reserve activations for groups of host computers:
  1. Open the existing
    flexsvr.opt
     options file or create a new file.
  2. Edit the Options file to include the following lines. Replace:
    • [name] with the name of the group of computers
    • [host] with the name of the computer to be included in the group. Specify as many computers as necessary.
    • [featurekey] with the name of the software application executable.
    • [count] with the number of activations to reserve.
      HOST_GROUP [name] [host1] [host2] [hostN]
      RESERVE [count] [featurekey] HOST_GROUP [name]
      For example:
      HOST_GROUP Plantadminpcs flooradminpc supervisorpc1 supervisorpc2 teamleadpc1 teamleadpc2
      RESERVE 5 RS5K_700.EXE HOST_GROUP Plantadminpcs.*
      The first line creates the group Plantadminpcs composed of five computers. The second line holds five activations for the
      Logix Designer
       application for use by computers that are members of the Plantadminpcs group.
  3. Save the file with the name
    flexsvr.opt
     in the default folder.
  4. From the
    Advanced
     tab, refresh the activation server.
