Single Site with Multiple Products, Served Licenses

This deployment scenario assumes you have one site, running multiple Sybase products, that requires asset management capabilities.

Typically, a served license with one license server that serves all Sybase licenses works most efficiently in such an environment. The overhead of maintaining the license server is compensated by the asset management functionality and a reduction in ongoing license maintenance because of the license server.

Single-Site Served License Configuration
In a single site, the served license configuration shows computers, Adaptive Server, and Replication Server all connected to PowerBilder, license files, and PowerDesigner.

The "Single-Site Served License Configuration" figure shows one license server that is set up to grant SySAM licenses to all Sybase products in use. Each instance of a Sybase product contacts the license server to acquire a license.

You can set up the license server on a separate host machine, but because the license server uses few resources, it can typically be hosted on an existing machine.
