Switching from Single Use to Concurrent Licensing

ChristopherBates — Fri, 17 Jul 2020 21:15:23 GMT

Hello,

Our organization is making the switch from Single Use to Concurrent Licenses (Making use of the License Manager) for ArcGIS Desktop Application. One thing that I'm trying to work out is how, as an administrator, I can apply the change of license type in ArcGIS Administrator without having to physically go to each user's workstation and login as admin.

Basically, switching from Single Use to Concurrent means that I need to specify the Server Manager in ArcGIS Administrator, and I'd like to do this for every user on the organization without having to leave my desk.

Is this possible?

**Edit**: By Server Manager - I meant License Manager

I edited a .bat file created by another user in this post. So thanks for the suggestion. Seems like this will work for us.

Cheers!
