Question

domain locked license

asked on May 23, 2021

My current Laserfiche environment is gonna be moved to a cloud environment.

On cloud, I have to use Domain-Locked license.

While server preparation is being done in the cloud the current environment should be up and running for the users till we finalize the servers in the cloud and migrate all data.

I have to request to change the license to be Domain-Locked so I can complete my installation in the new servers in the cloud.

My question here: if I request to change the license to Domain-Locked, will that affect on the current environment? or the current environment will be stopped working ?

Hi Amir,

The change will only take effect once you renew or reactivate the license within LFDS. If you want to be safe, you can request that both the current domain and the new cloud domain be added to the domain-locked license. If you provide the explanation you did here along with the request, there shouldn't be any issue with the approval to add both. I would recommend doing that.

Make sure to read the documentation guide on moving an LFDS instance beforehand!

Thanks for the answer.

My current environment uses Fingerprint license, not domain locked license. Can I request keeping both?

So I can finalize the cloud environment while old environment up and running?

Welcome!

As long as LFDS is version 10.4.4 or higher, it automatically supports hardware fingerprint licensing alongside a domain-lock. No request necessary (or possible). Simply upgrade LFDS to 10.4.4+ to support both.

Clarification: The LFDS primary license can effectively only have either a domain lock or a HWFP lock (both can technically be present, but if so both are enforced). An LFDS 10.4.4+ instance with a domain-locked primary license can issue either domain-locked or HWFP-locked application licenses (e.g. for Forms). Application licenses with HWFPs will continue to work with a domain-locked primary license on LFDS 10.4.4+.

In your scenario, I would either:

  1. Follow my original recommendation to get both old and new domains added to the domain-lock list.
  2. Get just the new domain added to the primary license but don't renew the license in LFDS until you're migrated LFDS to the new domain.
