Node Manager
ANGOSS SmartWare Node Manager Help

Nodes allow access to SmartWare or the Developer programs. Multiple nodes provide access for more than one user at the same time. If you require more nodes than you currently have, fill out and print the Ordering Information dialog box in the Node Manager.

Usually nodes are added with a node key, however, nodes can also be added from a diskette.

Note that network will require access to the node file(s).

Add Disk

Enter the node file name into the text box.

For an introduction, see Node Manager.


Add Key

Enter the node key printed on your Node Key card.

Note that there are several points to keep in mind when adding nodes:

The node key is based on the last serial number and the number of nodes.  You cannot enter a node key based on an empty node file to one that has nodes in it and vise-versa.

You cannot add developer nodes to the environment and environment nodes to the developer.  You cannot mix nodes between platforms, although DOS and Windows are considered the same platform in this case.  You also cannot mix nodes of different versions.

You cannot modify a nodes file while others are in the system.
