Remote profiling and using license-server on Windows

[shashidhar]

Hi,

We are using WebSphere Application Server on a unix platform. We want to profile Websphere Application Server process (which is a java process) using Yourkit Java profiler. We added Yourkit agent path to the Websphere JVM entries.

Websphere is on unix machine and it needs to be connected remotely from windows machines, for profiling. We were able to connect remotely and no issues in doing profiling.

For configuring agentpath for websphere process on unix, I understand license key is not needed. Is this true?

We have a license that is of per-seat. Can this be used for configuring a license-server on windows?

Thanks,
Shashidhar.

License key is needed only for profiler UI. The profiler agent does not require license key. The license allows to enable profiling (use profiler agent) in any number of JVMs.

Per-seat and floating licenses are licenses of different types. Per-seat license cannot be used together with YourKit license server. If you want to convert your per-seat license to floating one, please contact sales(at)yourkit.com and provide details.
