====== Publisher License and Logging ======

===== Licensing =====

The Orbit 3DM Publisher license can be restricted to the number of concurrent users. 

** Concurrent Users** \\
The maximum amount of concurrent users at any time. \\ 
A unique user is the combination of hardware ID and Orbit login. Using different Orbit user logins on the same computer will count for multiple concurrent users. \\
A user will be released after 15 minutes inactivity. 

If you would have any question about Publisher licenses, contact sales at orbitgt dot com.

===== Client Notification =====
 
** Concurrent Users** \\
If the number of concurrent users is exceeded the message below will be displayed to the user on login : \\
"Failed to login due to license restrictions."

===== Server Logging =====

The administrator can activate and configure advanced logging for the 3DM Publisher to get exact information about the use, publication access, user logins and concurrent sessions of the Publisher. The logging database allows the administrator to review the publisher's license consumption. Logging will be performed into the database of your choice. 

Activate and configure logging via the EOS Console > [[206:server:console:current_use|Current Use> 3DM Publisher]]
===== Unique Logins =====

It is possible to restrict publication access to unique users to protect a publication to be used on multiple hardware (client computers) but using the same publication login (username), see [[206:server:console:publishers#Login|EOS Console > Publishers > Login]].
