How to increase floating user license number

[jerryleo]

Hi,

Wanted to increase floating user license, called the China resellers found on the 'where to buy' web page,  the reseller said it has to buy a fresh new whole license,   NOT avaible to just buy the differenc and merge with current liencese into a new whole one.   It sounds like a little bit ridiculous that have to either keep 2 seperate licenses or discard current one and pay more for a new whole license.

My question is

   How to merge these 2 seperate licenses into one  or just pay the difference to get the whole new license?

Thanks for your time

From the technical perspective there is no problem at all to merge licenses into a single license file or have the license manager served several individual license files from a license path. So it doesn't make sense to convert a license or increase the number of seats of an existing license from the commercial perspective. This is the reason why your reseller told you to just order an additional floating license to cover your needs of license seats.

I hope this helps.

It makes sense now.
