License installation
Within the first run, the license must be installed. The license for Datavard Glue is either time-bound and expires after a certain time period, or is unlimited (until 31.12.9999). As the license is bound to a system, every new system with installed Datavard Glue requires a new license.
Glue license installation
In Glue Cockpit, click on License-> License
A new dialog appears. Here you enter all license information. If you do not posses a license, please contact Datavard support.
