Applying license keys?

[Former Member]

Quick question for everyone, and just noting that I am new to SQL Anywhere...

We have a scenario for SQL Anywhere, which would use an architecture somewhat like this:

Consolidated Database (3rd party) <==> MobiLink sync server <==> UltraLite or UltraLiteJ on iOS or Android

Noting that the method to apply purchased licenses for SQL Anywhere database and MobiLink is via the Server Licensing Tool (dblic).

How are licenses applied for the UltraLite mobile databases...

1. Do they need to be managed and applied to each mobile database (UltraLite) instance separately, or
2. Are they managed centrally, and
3. Which tools are used to manage applying licenses to UltraLite?

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide here; I've been reviewing the SQL Anywhere documentation, but can't find an answer.

UltraLite database software does not use license files and as a result there is no licensing tool requirements for the UltraLite runtime. You simply need to ensure that there is sufficient Remote Database Client licenses for the number of devices using UltraLite/UltraLiteJ in this setup.
