Licenses
Section titled “Licenses”For each Windows server, a valid operating system license is required.
For the SQL Server, a processor license or individual Client Access Licenses (CALs) are required. If CALs are used, a CAL must be purchased for each user/computer that will access the database.
The following components in CapaInstaller require a CAL:
- All servers in the CapaInstaller solution
- All computers running the CapaInstaller Agent
- Each computer/user accessing the CMS console application
If a processor license is purchased, client connections are unlimited, and no CALs are needed.
Certificates
