Using a Single License File for Clustered Servers

You can use a single license file for multiple clustered servers. To do so, load the single license file (ai-licenses.bin) into the project database. The load balancer splits the load and the users evenly between servers; consequently, the program splits the available licenses between the servers. This is why the Program Information and License Usage form distinguishes between "Total Licenses" and "Licenses Available on this Server."

To set up a clustered environment, see the topic To Set Up a Clustered Set of Application Servers.

The following diagram shows a clustered environment using a single license file:
