LicensingSettings

LicensingSettings

is an option for RemoteBatchSubmit and related functions to configure licensing for remote kernels.

Details

  • LicensingSettings takes an association with the following keys:
  • "Entitlement"Automaticthe on-demand license entitlement to use
    "MathLMServer"(required)a MathLM server address
    "Method"Automaticthe form of product licensing to use
  • The following settings are accepted for the "Method" key:
  • Automaticuse the default licensing method associated with the function
    Nonedo not automatically activate the remote kernel
    "MathLM"obtain a license from a MathLM server
    "OnDemand"use on-demand licensing via the Wolfram Cloud
  • With "Method""OnDemand", the "Entitlement" key determines the on-demand license entitlement to activate the remote kernel. The value of this key can be a LicenseEntitlementObject, an entitlement ID as a string, the symbol Automatic or an association containing entitlement settings.
  • If the "Entitlement" key is set to Automatic, a new entitlement with default settings is created using CreateLicenseEntitlement.
  • If the "Entitlement" key is set to an an association, a new entitlement with the provided settings is created using CreateLicenseEntitlement.
  • Wolfram Engine kernels activated using on-demand licensing communicate regularly with the Wolfram license server in order to monitor usage.
  • On-demand license usage is charged against the entitlement owner's Service Credits balance on a pay-as-you-go basis.
  • With "Method""MathLM", the remote kernel is configured to request a license from the server specified by the "MathLMServer" key. The value of this key can be a string of the form "host" or "host:port", or a list like {"host",port}. An IPAddress expression may be substituted for the hostname.
  • With "Method"None, the remote kernel is given no explicit licensing or activation configuration and will attempt to activate normally using a mathpass file or command-line arguments.
