Manage licenses
STAEDEAN offers several ways to manage the license for your installed solutions:
Retrieve available licenses (maintenance mode required): You can get the available licenses from Azure Blob Storage. When retrieved, you can select which licenses to import. Once imported, disable maintenance mode.
Import license (maintenance mode required): If you receive a license file (.txt format), you can manually import it. For example, you import it together with license files from other ISV solutions. Once imported, disable maintenance mode.
Download a license package: You can download the latest license package from Azure Blob Storage as a .zip file. You can deploy the package through Microsoft Lifecycle Services (LCS). You can do this without switching your environment to maintenance mode.
You can manage your licenses as follows:
Click STAEDEAN solution management.
Sub-task: Retrieve available licenses.
Enable maintenance mode on your environment.
On the toolbar, click Retrieve available licenses.
On the dialog, each retrieved license is shown as a tile.
