| + | Next, the installation instructions tell us to run the following script: | ||
| + | \\ | ||
| + | \\ | ||
| + | / | ||
| + | \\ | ||
| + | Where **--serverID** would normally be **// | ||
| + | \\ | ||

| + | Next, reinstall the MFEL as Standalone: | ||
| + | \\ | ||
| + | \\ | ||

| + | ==== Create and Start a Service ==== | ||
| + | \\ | ||
| + | Now, when a service is created and started, you may see the following two alarms: | ||
| + | \\ | ||
| + | \\ | ||
| + | License server lost major Connection with license server lost | ||
| + | | ||
| + | License in start period minor Service starts for a short period without checking the license availability | ||
| + | \\ | ||
| + | This is because the MFEL is still looking at the license server on the original Controller Server. We need to point it to the new Controller we installed on the MFEL earlier. | ||
| + | \\ | ||
| + | \\ | ||
| + | |||
| + | ---- | ||
| + | ==== Point to Correct License Server ==== | ||
| + | \\ | ||
| + | There are two possible places the configuration script may reside (due to the MFEL previously having a non-standalone installation). But the syntax is the same for both, so if one fails, try the other. | ||
| + | \\ | ||
| + | \\ | ||
| + | < | ||
| + | / | ||
| + | |||
| + | / | ||
| + | </ | ||
| + | \\ | ||
| + | The LicenseServerIP will be the same IP Address as the MFEL | ||
