B.11. Managing a Computer Profile
Create a computer profile in the FPGA Self-Service Licensing Center to allow the assignment of licenses.
- Log in to the Intel® FPGA Self-Service Licensing Center.
- On the menu bar, click Computer and License Files > All Computers. Existing computer profiles, if any, displays.
- Click the New button to create a new computer profile.
- Perform these steps in the Create Computer dialog box:
- Type your computer name in the Computer Name field. You can specify any name meaningful to you in this field.
- Select the License Type for your computer. Your software license type must match the license type (float or fixed) of any license you want to assign your computer.
- Select the primary Computer Type for your computer. The primary computer type is the NIC ID, Host ID, or software guard ID.
- Type your NIC ID, host ID, or software guard ID number in the Primary Computer ID field. For details about how to extract information about your computer hardware, refer to Getting Hardware Information for License or Hardware Information Required When You Request a License.
- [FOR FIXED LICENSE] If you have a fixed license and want to use your license for multiple computers, you can specify up to two companion IDs in the Companion ID and Companion ID 2 fields.
Your companion ID is your NIC ID, Host ID, or software guard ID. You can use your license or associated companion license only on one computer at a time.
- [FOR FLOATING LICENSE] If you have a floating license, you can set up your license on up to two redundant license servers. Type the NIC ID or Host ID for redundant servers in the Redundant Server ID 1 and Redundant Server ID 2 fields.
- Click Save to save the profile.
To edit an existing computer profile:
- On the menu bar, click Computer and License Files > All Computers. Existing computer profiles, if any, displays in the All Computers table.
- Click the drop-down arrow icon at the end of a computer profile entry and select Edit. Edit <profile_id> dialog box displays.
- Modify the profile details and click Save.
- If you want to change the owner of the profile, then click the drop-down arrow icon at the end of a computer profile entry again and select Change Owner. Change Owner dialog box displays.
- Search the new owner name in the search users field and click Submit. This triggers an email notification to the new owner.
