SECTION 1

Using the Select Modules Utility

The SmartPlant Review Select Modules utility (SelectModules.exe) allows you to select which modules you want to pull licenses for when starting a SmartPlant Review session. Installed by default to C:\Program Files\SmartPlant\Review\Utilities\SelectModules, this utility is available on the Start menu under Programs > Intergraph SmartPlant Review > Select Modules. By default, SmartPlant Review attempts to obtain licenses for each module installed when you start the product. However, if there are not enough module licenses available to cover the number of modules installed, the SmartPlant Review session closes. In this case, we recommend that you use the Select Modules utility to unselect the modules for which you cannot obtain licenses. Doing so allows you to run SmartPlant Review with only those modules for which you can obtain licenses. You can also ask a co-worker to exit SmartPlant Review, which returns in-use licenses to the server, or you can purchase more licenses.

Example
If your site has four licenses of SmartPlant Review but only three module licenses for the Construction module and three of the SmartPlant Review sessions are currently using all three Construction module licenses, the fourth SmartPlant Review session will not run unless you use the Select Modules utility to de-select the Construction module before starting SmartPlant Review.

Select Licenses for Modules

1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Click Start > Programs > Intergraph SmartPlant Review > Select Modules. Check the modules for which you want to pull licenses. Click OK. Click Start > Programs > Intergraph SmartPlant Review > SmartPlant Review. Click Help > About SmartPlant Review to view a list of the modules for which SmartPlant Review was able to obtain licenses. By default, the first time you start SmartPlant Review, it attempts to pull licenses for itself and for each module you have installed, unless you first use the Select Modules utility to select the modules for which you want to pull licenses. If you are running SmartPlant Review in remote license mode (that is, you used the SmartPlant License Checkout utility to obtain licenses) and open the Select Modules utility, all modules appear disabled, with checks beside the modules with currently checked out licenses. These selections cannot be changed until the checkout duration expires, nor can licenses be obtained interactively while licenses are checked out. Checked out licenses cannot be checked in. Pulled licenses are returned to the license server when you close SmartPlant Review. SmartPlant Review displays a message if it cannot return a license for any reason (for

Using the Select Modules Utility example, the network connection to the license server is down). Licenses that cannot be returned must be scavenged on the SmartPlant License Manager server. For more information about scavenging licenses, see the SmartPlant License Manager Installation and User's Guide (SPLMInstall_UserGuide.pdf). If SmartPlant Review cannot obtain enough licenses at start up, the software displays a "not enough licenses available" message and SmartPlant Review shuts down. Before SmartPlant Review will run, you must either free enough currently in-use licenses to cover the modules you want to run or use the Select Modules utility to unselect the modules for which you cannot currently obtain a license. To see who is currently using licenses, use SmartPlant License Manager on the license server.

Select Modules Utility Dialog Box

The SmartPlant Review Select Modules Utility, installed by default during SmartPlant Review setup, allows you to specify which modules you want to pull licenses for when starting a SmartPlant Review session.

_ Modules - Displays the modules available with SmartPlant Review. A grayed-out entry means that module is not installed on your workstation. Check the box beside the module you want SmartPlant Review to pull a license for during startup. Licenses are not pulled for modules that are not checked. By default, all installed modules are checked. If you are running SmartPlant Review in remote license mode (that is, you used the SmartPlant License Checkout utility to obtain licenses) and open the Select Modules utility, all modules appear disabled, with checks beside the modules with currently checked out licenses. These selections cannot be changed until the checkout duration expires, nor can licenses be obtained interactively while licenses are checked out. Checked out licenses cannot be checked in. If SmartPlant Review cannot obtain enough licenses at start up, a "not enough licenses available" message is displayed and SmartPlant Review shuts down. Before SmartPlant Review will run, you must free enough currently in-use licenses to cover the modules you
