We just bought 5 yourkit floating license. Need some clarification regarding floating license concept.
We got 5 floating license keys : KEY1, KEY2, KEY3, KEY4 and KEY5.
In yourkit website it is mentioned that:
1> yourkit can work simultaneously installed copies.
- Does it means KEY1 will work with 2 different version of yourkit? For example 8.0.30 and 2014 work at the same time and do not required other license? What is the constraint into that?
2> Allowed number of concurrent users limit is number of licensed purchased (In our case it is 5).
- Here understanding is that if we install yourkit server in 5 machine with KEY1. will all 5 machines work simultaneously? What if 6 machine we use?
Machine1 will work KEY1
Machine2 will work KEY1
Machine3 will work KEY1
Machine4 will work KEY1
Machine5 will work KEY1
3> What is the node specifics licenses and what are the constraints?

Re: Yourkit floating license clarification
KEY1 will work for v8.0.x and for v2014, but not at the same time. You will be able to run v8 or v2014 separately, but not together at the same time.1> yourkit can work simultaneously installed copies.

You are not allowed to install several license servers with the same key(s). You should install and run one license server and put all your license keys to the license server pool. You will be able to run 5 copies of YourKit profiler simultaneously. If you need 6 or more concurrent copies, you will need to buy additional key(s).2> Allowed number of concurrent users limit is number of licensed purchased (In our case it is 5).
