SOLIDWORKS PDM manages licensing using SolidNetWork License (SNL) Manager. Installing SolidNetWork Licensing includes:
- Installing the SolidNetWork License Manager.
If you already
have a SolidNetWork License Manager installed for SOLIDWORKS, you can use it
with
SOLIDWORKS PDM. You must ensure that
it is updated to the
SOLIDWORKS PDM
release
version.
Starting with SOLIDWORKS 2022, you must reactivate
SolidNetWork License products
yearly
even if the licensed products are from an earlier
release.
- Activating client licenses.
- Configuring the
SolidNetWork
License server for use with the file vault.
- Ensuring that the SolidNetWork License server is accessible to all clients.
