License Server 2.0.1 Release Notes¶
The Teradici PCoIP License Server is a standalone service that runs on a Linux (RHEL or CentOS) machine and handles both PCoIP session license registrations and PCoIP session request authorization.
Most PCoIP deployments use Teradici's automatic cloud licensing service, and do not need a local license server. If your deployment cannot use cloud licensing, either because the site is not connected to the public internet or you need to retain control of your own session licenses, the Teradici PCoIP License Server is required.
Obtaining the Software¶
Installation methods are different for internet-connected and unconnected sites. Find the instructions for your environment here:
