Managing Licenses

Licenses provisioning scheme is the following:

Customer orders a hosting plan with license in store and pays the order.

After this, subscription creation starts. At the same moment, a license file image called license request is added to the Parallels Business Automation - Standard database. A license request contains all the information about an ordered license. A license request is submitted to Parallels Key Administrator to get a license key and after this, a license file(s). In the course of an order completion, License(s) provisioning is the last thing, it starts after all the other services included in a subscription are ready for use.

Online licenses issuing is a quick procedure in case the Parallels Key Administrator (KA) server is available. A KA plug-in sends a license request to the (KA) server. In return, the KA server issues a license key (a license alphanumerical identifier) and sends is to the plug-in. Then, using an issued license key, the KA server generates a license file and sends it to Parallels Business Automation - Standard. Finally, the KA plug-in tries to install a license into a customer subscription. In case installation fails, provider can install a license file for a customer manually.

In case licenses are uploaded manually, provider can view license requests in the list. Then provider clicks on a license request ID and gets a license request details displayed. After this, a license key(s) and file(s) can be uploaded manually to the Parallels Business Automation - Standard database. Finally, provider manually installs a license into a customer subscription.

Licenses are displayed in a list below a tab where the name of KA plug-in used to issue these licenses is shown. If you use several KA plug-ins, then licenses are collected into a several lists below several tabs, grouped by plug-ins used for issuing.

To upload or request a new license, click the New License button.

The list of licenses displays the following:
