Installing and updating the License Manager

Usually you do not need to install the License Manager separately: it is installed or updated together with each Virto product. Install or update it on its own when a Virto product reports that the installed License Manager is older than it requires.

The License Manager package is available for each SharePoint version:

• SharePoint Server Subscription Edition: Virto.WebLicenseManager.SE.zip
• SharePoint Server 2019: Virto.WebLicenseManager.2019.zip
• SharePoint Server 2016: Virto.WebLicenseManager.2016.zip

Each Virto product package also contains the Virto.WebLicenseManager folder with the same set of files.

Package contents#

Unzip the package. The Virto.CA.WLM.Setup folder of the Subscription Edition package contains:

• SetupSE.exe (SharePoint Server Subscription Edition) and Setup.exe — the setup wizard;
• Deploy.ps1 — a script that installs the solution or updates an installed one;
• Virto.CA.WLM.wsp — the SharePoint solution;
• Virto-Installer-CodeSigning.cer — the certificate the setup program is signed with;
• ReadMe.txt, VersionHistory.txt, EULA.rtf.

Install or update with the setup wizard#

On a SharePoint server, run the setup program as a farm administrator and follow the steps.

Install or update with PowerShell#

Open the SharePoint Management Shell as a farm administrator in the Virto.CA.WLM.Setup folder and run .\Deploy.ps1. If the License Manager is already installed, the script updates it to the version in the package.

Check the result#

After the installation or update, open Central Administration → Virtosoftware Web License Manager → Health and check that the solution is Deployed and the timer jobs are Running (see License Manager status and site license health).
