How to license the Support Optimizer feature?
Support Optimizer is available to users with that meet the following criteria:
a. AutoPIPE Advanced or Nuclear license enabled
b. PipeStress Vessel SELECT Entitlement.
There is a special entitlement license named “PipeStress Vessel SELECT Entitlements” which is available free for anyone with valid SELECT Entitlement.
For any user having a license problem, first confirm both of the following:
1. Open the "Welcome to AutoPIPE Licensing" dialog, and confirm that either AutoPIPE Advanced or Nuclear license has been selected
2. Next, open BLT and confirm whether “PipeStress Vessel SELECT Entitlements” is listed. On the Entitlements tab, Checkout License tab, or Product Status tab.
If "PipeStress Vessel SELECT Entitlements" is not listed then work with your Bentley Onsite admin to help address the issue. Remember after making changes in BLT, use Tools> Refresh Policy to see updates.
For a checked out scenario, before the computer is disconnected from the internet, suggest to open AutoPIPE and use Support Optimizer. This will automatically retrieved “PipeStress Vessel SELECT Entitlements” and would be displayed in BLT, and then go offline for 7 days. Afterwards one must reconnect to the internet again. Otherwise, check out a license for both AutoPIPE Advanced and/or Nuclear, and PipeStress Vessel Select Entitlements.
Consider contacting Bentley technical support to provide feedback on your using the Support Optimizer.
Also, if you may need any help in understanding or executing the optimizer, review Webinar here and/or contact technical support requesting assistance.
