Cloud Licensing Guide

Using the IAR cloud-based licensing system offline

In this section:

Any Named User or capacity token can be checked out for up to 7 days of offline use. The Named User or capacity is stored locally on the computer it is checked out on until it is checked in again. It is checked in again automatically after 7 days if it was not checked in manually before that.

To determine if a computer is running the IAR cloud-based licensing system offline, use iarlogin login-status (see iarlogin).

Note

Checked out capacity and Named Users cannot be accessed online until they are checked in again.

Checking out a Named User

To check out a Named User, follow these steps:

  1. Log in to your IAR account using iarlogin or IAR Embedded Workbench.

  2. Check out your Named User using this command line:

    iarlogin checkout-offline

    Your Named User is stored locally on your computer.

Checking out capacity from a capacity token

You can check out any capacity between 1 and the maximum capacity of the capacity token.

To check out capacity from a capacity token, follow these steps:

  1. Set up the IAR_LMS_BEARER_TOKEN variable with the token string of the capacity token.

  2. Check out capacity using this command line:

    iarlogin checkout-offline --capacity n

    where n is a capacity between 1 and the maximum capacity of the capacity token.

    The capacity is stored locally on your computer.

Checking in capacity or a Named User

Check in any capacity or Named User using this command line:

iarlogin checkin-offline
