How to activate Mistika software in a system without internet connection

The licensing application is theSGOActivationTool, and it provides two ways to do the activation:


- ON LINE : (with internet connection). This method is automatic (you just need to put the activation code in the SGOActivationTool), but it requires internet connection.



- OFF LINE: this second method does not require Internet connection in the computer that will be using Mistika software. It works as follows:


- Get the "LMData" identifier from the computer where you want to use Mistika (no internet connection required).SGOActivationTool->Offline mode->SystemKey(LMData)


- Bring that LMData code to a computer with Internet connection. In a web browser login toyour web account in the SGO website  and use theActivation Codes -> Activateoption to get a license file for it (you will be asked for the LMData)


- Bring the license file to the original computer and install it with theSGOActivationTool->Offline mode

NOTE: There is also another way to get licenses without Internet connection, which is to usefloating licenses. In this method all the activation codes are installed in one only computer which will be the "license server", and all the client computers will get the licenses from it. The client computers will not need internet connection, only a connection to the license server. Meanwhile, the license server can activate the codes either with an internet connection or by using the offline method explained above (it requires identical steps, but using the LMData of the license server)
