Issue
Embedded WebStation client licenses were needed when logging directly into a SmartX server as of 3.0.1 but are no longer needed
Product Line
EcoStruxure Building Operation
Environment
- Building Operation Webstation
- Building Operation SmartX Server
Cause
The license requirement is being removed due to market feedback. The quantity of direct web connections to the SmartX server is restricted by the Architectural Guidelines only.
Resolution
Important for version 4.0 (EBO 2022) and above:
Note that in Building Operation 2022 (v4.0.x) and above, WebStation licenses have now been enforced at the server level and are required.
If there is no embedded server license for example "XWSWXBU0000SD ASP Bundle - Standard" in the SpaceLogic server it will not be possible to login to the server using Webstation.
The Webstation license is included in the embedded server license.
For version 3.0.x
The change is available via a HotFix to version v3.0.3 and will be incorporated into Maintenance Release v3.0.4. In both the HotFix and the Maintenance Release, license status presentations in the Device Administrator and Control Panel will indicate the availability of 99 client licenses. However, the supported quantity of direct web connections to a single SmartX server is established by the Architectural Guidelines; currently, the maximum is five concurrent connections. In v3.1, the Device Administrator and Control Panel will not list client license availability at the SmartX server level since it is not constrained by licenses.
