When there is a change or update to your SELECTserver License, default settings on the SELECTserver accept these changes automatically once a day. If you would like to accept changes sooner, you can force the SELECTserver to check for an update at anytime. This TechNote will provide instructions for manually updating hte license file on a Deployed SELECTesrver.
Updating licensing on a deployed SELECTServer will not cause users to exit their applications; SELECTserver does not maintain a real-time connection between the licensed application and the license server. SELECTserver is used primarily for tracking and reporting usage, not granting licenses or enforcing the right for an application to run.
The license must be updated using the SELECTserver administration page. You can access that page by going to:http://localhost/bss/admin/default.aspx - Can only be accessed if on the SELECTserver machine
orhttp://yourservername/bss/admin/default.aspx - Can be accessed if on the same network as the SELECTserver

Once on the administration page, locate the "License Management" from the top menu bar. Click on the "Request/Update License."
Your Serial number and Activation key will already be listed in the dialog box. Check the Force Full Retrieval box and click OK.
Verify that the license is correct.
Once you have accepted your license update, you can verify your license by clicking on the 'View License File' tab.
