If a facility is using a mix of legacy licenses and current licenses, the Interplay Engine first looks
for an appropriate legacy license. If none are available, it looks for an appropriate current license.
For example:
1. An Assist client logs on. The Interplay Engine looks for an Assist license (KEY-XL)
2. If it does not find one available, it looks for a Base license (KEY-J).
3. If it does not find one available, it looks for an Advance license (KEY-G)
If a facility is using only legacy licenses, Interplay Engine v2.7.0.2 and later manages licenses in
the same way that it did before v2.7.0.2. One client license can apply to multiple applications on
a client workstation. For example, if you have an editing application running, no additional
license is needed to run Access at the same time:
• If you start the Avid editing application first, KEY-XE is assigned. If you then start Interplay
Access, KEY-XE covers use of Interplay Access on the same machine.
• If you start Interplay Access first, KEY-X is assigned. If you then start the editing
application, KEY-X is released and KEY-XE is used instead.
