Refresh the License File

On each server, Matrix Server reads the license file upon startup and at

15-minute intervals. If you have upgraded the license file on a server and

want Matrix Server to read the new license immediately, use the Refresh

License feature (select the server on the Management Console, right-click,

and select Refresh License).

You can also use the following command:

mx server read_license <server>

Supported Matrix Server Features

Matrix Server provides device monitors, service monitors, and notifiers.

The license agreement for each server determines which features are

supported on that server. You can use the Display Features option on the

PolyServe Management Console to determine the supported features for

a particular server. Select the server on the Servers window, right-click,

and select View Features.

The Supported Features window lists all of the Matrix Server features.

Any features not supported by your license are greyed out.
