Need to move a license for Parallel Studio XE 2017

[JFoe]

We have three licenses for Intel Parallel Studio XE 2017 Update 1 Composer Edition for Fortran Windows. These are named licenses.

I need to move one of the licenses from an older computer which failed to a newer computer. However, the Intel Software Manager no longer can connect to its server. I read here that these servers are down permanently.

How do I move this named license now?

Hi Jens, kindly note that now there is no need to use the Intel® Software Manager to install any Intel® Products. We recommend you to directly install the Intel® Parallel Studio XE 2017 Update 1 Composer Edition for Fortran Windows in your newer system and make sure compatible system requirements is matching to your newer system.

You may refer to link: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/articles/release-notes/intel-parallel-studio-xe-release-notes-and-new-features.html#inpage-nav-3, and check the Intel® Parallel Studio XE 2017 Update 1 release notes then confirm the compatible hardware & software requirements for your Intel® Product.

I think there is a misunderstanding here:
Installing the compiler and integrating it with VisualStudio in the new computer is not  the problem.

The problem is that I can not compile any Fortran files, as the compiler is complaining about a missing license, something about FlexLM not finding a suitable license file.

As far as I know the Software Manager is needed to attach/import/get/... a license for that new computer, right? The "Add Serial Number" button on the "Licenses"-tab does not work.

Hi Jens, please note that the Intel® Software Manager servers recently went down permanently. 

You may use your Intel® Registration Center account for the same purpose as the Intel® Software Manager. The information & features that were found on the Intel® Software Manager were available via the Intel® Registration Center's server.

Thanks for the information, it turns out that if you do not have a currently active support subscription it is no longer possible to move a named license from one computer to another. Disappointing, but that apparently is the current situation.

So the license in question is no longer usable, I have to look for alternatives such a a different compiler.
