Setting up a license for ERDAS Central License Service (Indiana University network)

1. Open Windows Explorer and navigate to C:\IUware Online\ERDAS IMAGINE 9.2\LICENSING. For Windows Vista, double-click LGGI_VistaLicenseServer.exe. For Windows 2000 and XP, double-click LGGI_LicenseServer.exe.

4. In the License Manager window, click Add, and then select License server information.
5. Next to "Server Name:", type erdas1 (the final character is the number 1). Click OK. If your computer does not recognize the server as valid, type erdas1.uits.indiana.edu. If this doesn't work, see ARCHIVED: At IU, using ERDAS IMAGINE, how do I correct the error "Cannot find valid license information"?
6. To ensure license service backup, also add the server name erdas2, or use the full server name erdas2.uits.indiana.edu.

8. To confirm a successful installation, start ERDAS IMAGINE 9.2 by opening the Start menu, then All Programs, Leica Geosystems, and then ERDAS IMAGINE 9.2.

Setting up a local license for laptop or home computer

Note: You have two options for installing the ERDAS IMAGINE license manager. One manager is compatible with Windows 2000 and XP. The other manager is compatible with Windows Vista.

4. In the License Manager window, select the System ID Source you plan to use (i.e., Local Area Connection, Hard Disk, CPU ID or Hardware Key). If you are unsure, choose Hard Disk.

   If you had a previous installation of ERDAS IMAGINE, you should already see the license file information loaded. Confirm that the license server is running. Click OK to close all windows. Skip to the final step.

5. Copy the System ID code and send it to the GIS Support Specialists. If you have purchased an ERDAS license from UITS, a GIS Support Specialist will send you an electronic license file.

11. Click Yes when prompted to start the license server. You should see your computer's hostname in the "Server Name" text box.
