Registry Setting Change for ESRI License (Network / Single)

March 14, 2008 13:24 by carlos

I had a situation recently where I was unable to find my network ArcGIS dvd.  I only had the Single Use DVD which does not have the ability to select a network resource.  I made some registry changes and can now switch between Single an Network (Perfect for the road shows and when needing Info License in the office).

Notice how you are not able to select a network license:

To rectify, First open your registery via the Start -> Run and type in regedit.  This will bring up the registry.

Scroll down to License under the ESRI folder (see image below)

 

You will need to add a new registry string and modify 2 registry values.

1) Add a new registry string value by right clicking on the License Folder then selecting New ->String Value.  Type ArcGIS_Installed then right click on the new ArcGIS_Installed and select Modify.  Type TRUE into the value data text box.

2) Modify the value of LICENSE_SERVER and select your license server name (Don't forget to keep your @ sign in front of your server name -- See image below)

3) Modify the SEAT_PREFERENCE and change from Singel to Float

You can now change between Single and Network via the ArcGIS Desktop Administrator Panel:

 

Cheers,

Carlos

Valuable thoughts and advices. I read your topic with great interest. They say they've been taxed and regulated to death for decades, and they have no choice but to do what they can to claw their way back into profitability.

Me and my friend were arguing about an issue similar to this! Now I know that I was right. lol! Thanks for the information you post. If I have a favorite show that I've tivo'd and want to watch, I can make it coincide with my cardio workout time.

You gave tremendous positive points there. I did a search on the topic and found most peoples will agree with your blog. And when you need it, you just push your iPhone into the holder, and the Solar Surge's battery, charges the iPhone's battery.
