RDNG License Timeout 6.0.3


Carol Watson (7351219) | asked Aug 20 '18, 5:19 p.m.

 According to this post https://jazz.net/forum/questions/223324/clm-license-timeout-option increasing the License timeout  should have changed the timeout period. But, upon checking Issued Leases, the Timeout shown still reflects a 60 minute timeout, rather that then 120 minute change I made.


Is a server restart required when you change the timeout value?

We are on 6.0.3 IFIX011, without CM.

Thanks,
Carol

Hi Carol
Just to be sure, assume you use floating licenses, and you changed the values on the JTS server right? And how did you check the leases?

 Hi Bas,


Yes, we use floating licenses.

  I  went to:
  1. Jazz Team Server Home
  2. Server Administration page
  3. Selected Advanced Properties
  4. Core Repository Component section
  5. License Timeout ( I doubled the default value of 1800000)
To check Issued Leases, same page:
  1. Licensing section
  2. Issued Leases
  3. Selected Analyst-Floating licenses
Thanks!
Carol

There are several properties for licenses, so I had to look twice too.
The one we were looking at is in section Core Repository Component -> subsection com.ibm.rational.common.token.licensing.RLSLicenseService, which works for token licenses.

Instead look at the one for floating licenses:
section Core Repository Component -> subsection com.ibm.team.repository.service.internal.license.FloatingLicenseService -> License checkout time
which has default 3600 seconds.
Doubling the value to 7200 indeed extended the lease to two hours for me.

1800000 ms = 30 minutes, double that and you have 60 minutes. So that's correct.
And don't think you need a server restart.

 Well that's what I thought too but Issued Leases was indicating it was 60 minutes before I doubled the value in Advanced properties. That's when I started wondering if that timeout setting was being overridden by a setting elsewhere?
