The LICENSING branch on the Configuration Tree defines the different types of license management tools and the various software licenses managed by these tools for the application software that will run on one or more Compute Servers. This information will be used by the queuing system in EASA to check for available licenses before submitting a process to a Compute Server that requires the use of a licensed software application.

The license management tools are defined under LICENSE TYPE LIST using LICENSE TYPE objects. Likewise, the different software licenses to be managed are found in the LICENSE LIST as LICENSE objects. Descriptions of objects and parameters found on the LICENSING branch are given in the table below.

The LICENSE objects on the Configuration Tree configure EASA licenses for one or more Compute Servers.

LICENSE objects are referred to by USE LICENSE objects under the SOFTWARE LIST branch.
