Fekete Software ID Renaming

Introduction​

Configure softwareid-to-feature_name.map to rename Fekete software IDs to readable feature names. The new feature names will be visible in both the License Monitor and historical reports.

Apply the configurations shown in the Open iT Core Server.

Configuring softwareid-to-feature_name.map​

  1. Open softwareid-to-feature_name.map in the Configuration directory, which is by default in C:\Program Files\OpeniT\Core\Configuration.

    Notice that it contains instructions on how to edit the file.

  2. Specify Fekete software IDs with the following syntax:

    Mapping Syntax
    MAP: <Feature_Name>  
    <old_feature_name\*;product>

    Empty lines are allowed — any line beginning with # as the first non-whitespace character is considered a comment. Globbing is also supported, allowing you to use several globbing patterns; however, remember that they are slower than exact matches. To make your mapping files more effective and efficient, refer to Optimizing Rules to Speed Up Rename or Mapping.

    In the mapping file, entries are case-insensitive, meaning that capitalization variations, such as 'FeketeFeature' and 'feketefeature', will be recognized as identical. Also, note that leading and trailing spaces are removed from entries.

    Example
    MAP: Piper  
    1\*;fekete

    This example renames all features under 1\ as Piper.

    You can also include custom configurations in this mapping file, such as default mapping, setting date limits on specific mapping entries, or creating nested maps.

  3. Save the changes.

This mapping may affect the following data types:
