Problem: I am using NI Volume License Manager to manage the licenses on my volume license agreement. How can I get started using NI VLM? Solution: NI Volume License Manager (NI VLM) helps you manage and administer your National Instruments software licenses. The computer that hosts NI VLM is referred to as the license server and the end-users' computers are referred to as the client computers. NI VLM is hosted on the server computer and is operated by the license administrator who is designated as the main contact for that company’s licenses. The client computers are configured to check for permission from NI VLM before launching the software. The license administrator does not need any particular knowledge of licensing or National Instruments software because the NI VLM makes managing the licenses easy. This short document will guide you step-by-step through the setup and configuration of NI Volume License Manager. The purpose of this demonstration is to successfully guide you to a state where your NI Volume License Manger and client software are operational.
