Where is the Server Path for the erwin License Server Stored in the Registry?

Description:

It is sometimes desirable to enter or edit the Server Path for the erwin License Server without entering it manually after launching erwin Data Modeler.

For example, when a software distribution tool (such as SCCM) is being used to push erwin Data Modeler to workstations. Including the Server Path registry entry in the push eliminates the need for each user to enter it themselves.

Solution:

The Registry location for the Server Path is as follows:

For r8.2
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\CA\ERwin Data Modeler\8.2\License Server  

For r9
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\CA\ERwin Data Modeler\9.0\License Server

The Key Name is: Server Path

It will have a value which is the name of the ERwin License Server pre-pended with the "@" sign:

    @MyERwinServer

 In some cases it may be necessary to add the port number by putting "27000" at the front of the Server Path  

    27000@MyERwinServer

NOTE: You cannot simply always include the "27000" in front of the path, because if it is not needed, it can prevent the connection form being established.
