Pool IDs

The Pool IDs panel opens when you click the Name of a pool on the Terminal ID Manager - Monitor IDs panel. This panel shows the current Pool Settings, the ID Summary, and the specific IDs in that pool.

  • Pool Settings

    Each ID in this pool satisfies the Selection Criteria, which was set in the database, and summarized here. The Communication timeout and Heartbeat intervals are shown here for easy reference.

  • ID Summary

    You can easily see how many licenses in this pool are Allocated, Free, Held, or Timed Out. Look in the table to identify which IDs have those attributes.

  • IDs

    By default, All IDs are shown in the table. Use the Show menu and the Column Chooser column chooser to customize the display.

    Note

    An attribute without a value is either currently not defined or not required for the IDs in that pool.

Actions

Use the control buttons to Hold, Release, or Reclaim one or more specific IDs.

  • Hold: Set an administrative Hold on the selected IDs. The ID Status changes to Free/Hold or Allocated/Hold.

    Any available (Free) IDs that are put on Hold will not be considered for allocation. If an ID is currently allocated, the client will be notified (during the next client heartbeat) that the ID should be returned.

  • Release: Release any of the selected IDs that are in Hold status. The ID Status changes to Free.

  • Reclaim: This button displays if a pool is expanded to show IDs. When reclaimed, any selected ID that is allocated is changed to unallocated status.
