License Monitoring

The License Monitor or Monitor page contains the real-time display of all monitored license servers.

License Monitor Page

Just like in the License Managers page, the status of the detected vendors are identified as follow:

Green - the vendor daemon is up; the client is connected to the server
Yellow - the files are not updated for more than two (2) hours
Red - the vendor daemon stopped; the client can either be disconnected or connected to the server
Gray - the vendor daemon is up (last known); client is disconnected to the server

Click on the vendor to see the features under it.

Administrators can allow an access control to navigate to the Monitor page through the Page Visibility option.

However, by default, the Page Visibility list does not include the Monitor page.

To add Monitor to the Page Visibility list in Administration > Access Controls:

Go to the Configuration folder, which is C:\Program Files\OpeniT\Zero\Configuration by default.
Create a copy of FeatureControl.json and rename the duplicate file to FeatureControl.Override.json.

Open the existing FeatureControl.Override.json, if there is already one.

In the override file, under Monitor, set Visible to true for RoleBasedPageAccessFilter.

FeatureControl.Override.json
{
    "FeatureControl": {
        "Monitor": {
            "EnabledFor": [
                {
                    "Name": "RoleBasedPageAccessFilter",
                    "Parameters": {
                    "Visible": true
                    }
                }

Save the file.

For administrators, the Monitor page immediately becomes available in the CLIMS web interface after enabling.

After updating the file, Administrators can proceed with Managing Access Controls to grant access to the Monitor page.
