What is a checked out license, and what is its purpose?
Checking out is the temporary transferring of a license from one computer to another. The license will be locked on the donor computer (server) as “checked out” for the selected period, whilst it will be useable on the client computer for that period. When the check out period expires, the client license will expire and license will reset to be useable on the server. This is ideal for people working with laptops out in the field where there is a risk of losing a dongle or other security device.
