This file lists the recent defects fixed in Serena License Manager.
The Licensing Quickstart Guide was missing critical UNIX information, including the name of the startup script. This has been fixed.
When the License Manager was installed to UNIX, no e-mail notification was generated when users attempted to log in to a product or use a feature for which no licenses were available. This has been fixed.
E-mail notifications failed when the e-mail server was not configured to automatically append @domain_name to the from address, resulting in messages being sent with no domain value at all. This has been fixed. You can now manually define the from address for e-mail notifications, either by entering it on the Notification tab of the License Manager tool, or by editing the from value in the licmgr.ini file.
When concurrent licenses were simultaneously installed both for the Professional Suite and for individual products within the Professional Suite, the correct total number of concurrent licenses for individual products only displayed when no Professional licenses were in use. This has been fixed.
Under certain circumstances, such as when X-Windows font substituion was in use, the font size displayed by the License Manager tool was too small to be readable. This has been fixed. To increase the font size, you can now specify a fontsize property in the SLM_GUI section of the licmgr.ini file. For example:
[SLM GUI]
fontsize=18
During installation on Windows platforms, you can define a custom program group for the shortcuts to the License Manager components. The custom program group was not always applied--instead, the default was used. This has been fixed. You can now successfully customize the program group.
Concurrent licenses were sometimes assigned to users for whom named licenses were defined. This resulted in concurrent licenses being unnecessarily consumed, when named licenses should have been used instead. This has been fixed.
From the Products tab of the License Manager tool, you can click Manage User IDs to display all named users. In some cases, users that had only been named once were displayed twice, appearing to use twice as many named licenses than they actually did. This has been fixed.
The License Manager sometimes failed to start on UNIX platforms, with the following error:
Unable to start License Manager: Vendor daemon can't talk to lmgrd
This has been fixed.
Previous releases of the License Manager were case sensitive, forcing users to use multiple licenses when logging in with case variations of the same user ID. This has been fixed so that License Manager is no longer case sensitive.
In previous releases, all user names needed to be unique. This has been fixed. Multiple users may now be defined with the same user ID. Separate licenses will be assigned to each user, so long as each user is logging in from a different machine.
After successful login to the Tracker web client, the License Manager generated an e-mail notification stating that "No such feature exists." This issue has been fixed, and the error message is no longer generated.
From the Licensing tab of the License Manager tool, the Get Key(s) button returned an error message that stated "Cannot Retrieve Licenses," with details on manually connecting to a URL that is out of date. This has been fixed. The button now successfully retrieves license keys.
After the License Manager server was restarted, any Professional package licenses that were in use were released, and individual product licenses were then used instead (such as Tracker and Version Manager licenses). This prevented other users from using the individual product licenses. This has been fixed.
Under certain conditions, the License Manager server crashed with the following error: "Vendor daemon died with status 5." This has been fixed.
