# Mapping Bentley Vendor License

# Introduction

The vendor license's default format is typically [server_name];[license_manager]. This mapping file allows administrators to assign a real name to the vendor license and consolidate multiple vendor licenses under a single vendor license.

# Configuring bentley-product-mapping.map

  1. Open bentley-product-mapping.map in the Configuration directory, which is by default in C:\Program Files\OpeniT\Core\Configuration.

    Notice that it contains instructions on how to edit the file.

  2. Specify the feature to rename with the following syntax:

    MAP: [Combine_VendorLicense_name]   
    [Bentley_VendorLicense1]
    [Bentley_VendorLicense2]

    Empty lines are allowed — any line beginning with # as the first non-white character is considered a comment. Globbing is also supported.

    Example
    MAP: ProjectWise Explorer Client 
    ProjectWise Explorer Client V8i
    ProjectWise Explorer Client 10.00.01.71

    This example sets ProjectWise Explorer Client as the new vendor license name for ProjectWise Explorer Client V8i and ProjectWise Explorer Client 10.00.01.71.

  3. Save the changes.

  1. Open bentley-product-mapping.map in the etc directory, which is by default in /var/opt/openit/etc.

    Notice that it contains instructions on how to edit the file.

  2. Specify the feature to rename with the following syntax:

    MAP: [Combine_VendorLicense_name]   
    [Bentley_VendorLicense1]
    [Bentley_VendorLicense2]

    Empty lines are allowed — any line beginning with # as the first non-white character is considered a comment. Globbing is also supported.

    Example
    MAP: ProjectWise Explorer Client 
    ProjectWise Explorer Client V8i
    ProjectWise Explorer Client 10.00.01.71

    This example sets ProjectWise Explorer Client as the new vendor license name for ProjectWise Explorer Client V8i and ProjectWise Explorer Client 10.00.01.71.

  3. Save the changes.
