Manage long-term records in ACLs

A long-term reservation of a license lasts until the expiration date of the license. You can create long-term records or remove them by updating an access control list (ACL) file (acl.json).

When Qt License Server starts, it generates long-term records from the ACL and creates a long-term license list of the users who can reserve each license.

To manage long-term records with an ACL:

  1. Edit long-term records in the ACL file.
  2. Set the ACL file to use.
    ./qt-license-server set-acl --from-json <.json file input path> --url <URL of the running instance>

    Note: This updates both the ACL and long-term license list.

  1. Edit long-term records in the ACL file.
  2. Set the ACL file to use.
    .\qt-license-server.exe set-acl --from-json <.json file input path> --url <URL of the running instance>

    Note: This updates both the ACL and long-term license list.
