Using Plesk License Repository

Plesk License Repository is used for storing all license keys, including old ones and master keys, of all Plesk servers registered in Plesk Expand. License keys are stored in the repository until the server that uses them is removed from Plesk Expand.

You can get to the Plesk License Repository by clicking License Repository on the Plesk servers management page.

The Plesk License Repository contains the list of the license keys presently stored there. The following table provides the names of the list columns and their descriptions:


Column Name	Description
S	Represents a state of a license key:		A license key is active.
			A license key has expired.
ID	Shows an ID number of a license key. The ID number is given to each license key automatically after its installation and depends on the order of its installation. The first license key installed in Plesk gets ID number 1, the second installed key - ID number 2 and so on.
Key Number	Provides a number of a license key.
Key Type	Indicates the type of a license key:	Default	A key with a limited functionality allowing you to create one Plesk client, one domain, and one mailbox.
		Regular	A key providing full functionality of the control panel.
		Master (Reseller)	A key used by a reseller. This key contains the feature set of a regular key and is granted to a user by a reseller.
		Additional	A separate license key you need to purchase for separate products that can be integrated with Plesk.
Plesk Servers	Shows a name of the server this license key is installed on.
Expiration Date	Displays an expiration date of a license key. Note: When a license key expires, a corresponding notification is sent to the administrator's e-mail. The server the license key of which has expired becomes deactivated.

The following operations can be performed on license keys:

To proceed to viewing detailed information about a certain key, click its name in the list.
To proceed to the administration page of the server this license key belongs to, click the server name in the list.
To filter license keys by state, select the state in the Key State list (OK, Expired or All) and click Search.
To search for a certain license key, enter its ID or key number in the provided fields and click Search. To revert to the entire list of objects, click Show All.
To filter license keys by status, select the status in the Key Status list (Installed, Not Installed or All) and click Search.
To remove a license key from the repository, check it in the list and click Remove Selected. The confirmation page appears prior to removal.
Note: A license key cannot be removed from the repository if it is active on the Plesk server it belongs to. To remove this key, you should first install another key on this Plesk server.
