Client Access License (CAL) Installation

For multi-user applications, in addition to installing and activating the Windows Server
operating system license on the host PC, you need to acquire two types of client access
licenses.
First, you need a standard Windows Server CAL for each user or device.
You also need to install a:

Remote Desktop Services CAL (RDS-CAL) when running on Windows Server
or

Windows MultiPoint Server CAL (WMS-CAL) when running on Windows
MultiPoint Server for each user or device accessing the system.
For Windows Server operating systems, you will need to add the Remote Desktop
Licensing Server role (provided with the operating system) to at least one host in your
environment.
After you install the licensing server on a particular host:

You will use the Remote Desktop Licensing Manager application to activate the
server and add RDS CALs. Other hosts in your environment can then point to
this license server.

For Windows MultiPoint Server, the licensing server component is pre-installed
and you can simply use the MultiPoint Manager application to enter in your WMS
CAL (instead of using the Remote Desktop Licensing Manager, which does not
accept WMS CALs).
For further details on setting up the license server and installing CALs, please refer to
your respective operating system documentation or refer to the article entitled:
Configure a Remote Desktop Licensing Server for vSpace
Knowledge Base.
Upgrading Your PC or Moving Your Card to
another PC
The registration process assigns your vSpace software license and X-series PCI card to
the specific host PC in which they are installed. If you change or upgrade multiple
components on your PC, such as the hard drive and operating system or if you move the
PCI card to another PC, you will need to re-assign your software license and card to the
new host PC configuration. When making such a change, simply repeat the online or
offline registration process. You can reassign your license in this way a maximum
of two additional times after your initial registration. If you exceed this limit, you
will need to contact NComputing technical support.
