License Installation

You should have received a license for RuleManager either with your distribution or separately. If you have not received a license for RuleManager, please contact email us to obtain one.

To install your RuleManager license

  1. Execute the Dovetail Software License Installer which is found in the Dovetail SDK installation root.
  2. The database connection/login screen will appear (Figure 2). This allows License Installer to connect to your Clarify™ database instance and view current and install new Dovetail Software licenses. Please enter required information (all fields are required except for "DB Name" when the database type is "Oracle") and click "Login". The License Installer will then attempt to connect to the database.

  3. After successfully connecting to the database and retrieving any existing license information, the license information screen (Figure 3) will be displayed. This will list any existing licenses and some basic information about them. It also allows you to install new licenses by clicking on the "Install New License(s)" button.

  4. To install a new license or licenses, click the "Install New License(s)" button. You will be prompted (see Figure 4) to select an XML license file, or paste a license XML fragment you may have received in an email or other source. Once you have loaded or pasted the XML fragment, click the "Install" button to install the license.

  5. If the installation is successful, the license information screen will appear. The newly installed license(s) should appear in the list of installed license. At this point the License Installer can be closed, or new licenses can be installed as many times as is needed. If the installation is not successful, an error dialog window will appear giving further details about what went wrong.
