Description

  • When changing license file from PTC PDMLink Module License to PTC Contribute License.

  • The change does not seem to take affect immediately:


  • License Group membership updated by background processes (Windchill queues) out of the box.

  • Since queue is scheduled to run every 24 hours, the membership information will not be updated immediately

  • User or Group membership doesn't updated in information page


          • Reported to R&D as SPR 7723998

          • Corrected in Windchill PDMLink 11.0 M030 CPS15, Windchill PDMLink 11.1 M010 CPS-08, Windchill PDMLink 11.1-M020-CPS05, Windchill PDMLink 11.1 M030 


          • Workaround 1:

            • Adjust the group-membership:

            • Wait 8 -24 hours after removing ORG group to remove SITE group

          • Workaround 2:

            • Set the following properties to get the user updated immediately instead of 24 hours, see article below for all steps: CS306041

              • xconfmanager -s wt.org.immediateCalculationOfLicenseMembers=true -t codebase/wt.properties -p
