Server License
The Protege GX license is bound to the server. Each time a license request is generated, it takes a complete
hardware profile of the server. Any significant change in the hardware profile requires a new license activation.
System specifications must be met, and may be checked when your server is licensed.
If using Protege GX in a virtual environment (such as VMWare), the MAC address of the virtual machine must be
fixed otherwise your hardware profile will keep changing.
When to license your server
Your server license must be updated after:
 The server software installation is complete
 An additional licensed feature is purchased
 A software upgrade requires the Protege GX software to be uninstalled
 The server hardware profile changes
When the server hardware profile changes, ICT must be contacted to request an additional license activation.
The reason for the hardware change will be logged, as will the change in hardware profile.
