Using the License Key Info Tool
You can use the LicenseKeyInfo tool to display and print out the license information for an
Interplay Engine or Interplay Archive Engine. This tool is primarily a support tool. It is useful
when you have only a license file available (and not a server), or you want to know the enabled
features of a license without installing it.
To examine the license key information for an Interplay Engine:
1. Navigate to the following folder:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Avid\Avid Interplay Engine\Server
2. Double-click LicenseKeyInfo.exe
The Interplay License Info dialog box opens.
3. Click Get License Info.
4. Select the License file and click OK.
The system displays the license info.
5. (Option) Click Save License Info or Print License Info and follow the on-screen instructions.
Configuring Third-Party Storage
This view is used to configure storage manufactured by companies other than Avid. It is used
primarily in AMA workflows. For more information, see “Using AMA Material in Interplay” in
the Interplay | Production Best Practices Guide.
