You can create a server host type from the List Server Host Types page.
To create a server host type
| 1. | Click Create Server Host Type. The Producer Portal opens the Add Server Host Type page. |
| 2. | For Server Host Type Name, type a unique identifier for the host type. |
| 3. | Optionally type a description for the server host type in Description. |
| 4. | Optionally, for Alias, type a human-readable name for the server host type. |
| 5. | For Default Host ID Type, select a host ID type. Choose from |
| • | ETHERNET |
| • | INTERNET_6 |
| • | FLEXID_9 |
| • | FLEXID_10 |
| • | STRING |
| • | USER |
| • | VM_UUID |
| • | TOLERANT |
| • | EXTENDED |
| • | PUBLISHER_DEFINED |
| 6. | For Identity, choose from a list of available publisher identities. |
| 7. | Optionally, select the Default check box. If you click the check box, the current host type becomes the default host type for all new license servers. |
| 8. | Optionally, add a pre-installed product to the server host type. |
A pre-installed product defines a set of built-in features for license servers based on this server host type. (A server host type with no pre-installed product results in license servers with no built-in features. In this case, all features would be additional features.) To add a pre-installed product
| a. | Click Add Pre-installed Product. This button opens the Add Pre-installed Product page in a pop-up window. |
| b. | On the Add Pre-installed Product page, click By Product. This button opens the Select Product page in another pop-up window. |
| c. | On the Select Product page, click the radio button for the pre-installed product and then click OK. This button closes the Select Product window and shows the product name and version of the selected product on the Add Pre-installed Product page. |
| d. | On the Add Pre-installed Product page, specify a license model, license model attributes (optional), and expiration terms. |
