How to extend the trial period ?

By default, when you install Artica, your server has obtained an evaluation license. If you want to continue testing the enterprise features, follow this procedure.

Back to main License section

To extend a license, you must register on the license server at https://licensing.artica.center/register in order to obtain an account.
Then send an eMail to contact@articatech.com in order to ask a trial extension with the company name entered inside the License server.

In Artica there is a difference between the trial license and the evaluation license.
Trial license is an impersonal license that is not associated with a user account while evaluation license is a license obtained through your account in the license server

A) Reset the Trial license

On the left menu, choose “Your System” > “License”
Click on the button “Reset the current License”

Confirm the removal operation

B) Link the server to your account

After reset the license, the form shows you the possibility to enter credentials used for access to the license server
Enter the email and password and click on Login button

Your server will be switched to the Evaluation License associated to your account

C) Switch to the dedicated extended license.

If your account's evaluation license is insufficient, Articatech Team can provides you with a custom Corporate Evaluation license with a dedicated expiration date.
To do this, you need to assign your server to this license in your account on the license server.

On the licensing server, click on the “chain icon” inside your Corporate Evaluation license row.

A new window will appear offering you Artica server(s) that can be assigned to this Entreprise license.
Select the server by clicking on the associated checkbox and click on Link button.

Now you can see that the Trial license have 0 server in use and your Corporate Evaluation license is now affected to 1 server.

On the Artica server, inside the license section, click on Update the Request
(This operation is not mandatory because Artica periodically requests the license server and updates itself if necessary)

After clicking on the “Update the Request” button, you should see your Artica server with the new license.
