Overview of License Monitor

The License Monitor provides visibility into license usage and user activity. It includes charts showing Named and Concurrent license consumption over time, with indicators for maximum license limits and server downtime. Additionally, it offers tables listing each user’s most recent login with their assigned license type, and identifies licensed users who have not yet logged in.

Instruction for Use

The License Monitor is available in the Global Administration area of your Polarion server. To access it, navigate to the UPPS! Extensions menu and select License Monitor.

    • Blue: Named licenses
    • Orange: Concurrent licenses
  • The black line indicates the maximum number of available licenses for that type and kind
  • A light red background area indicates periods when the Polarion server was offline
