How to borrow a Creo/ProEngineer license

What is borrowing a license, why is it useful?
You work in a company with 10 ProE users and licenses, now you have to drive with your Notebook to a customer to show him the progress of your project with ProEngineer. 

The Problem is you need to take(borrow) a ProEngineer license from the license-server of your company.  To be able to start ProEngineer even if your not connected to the license-server. 

How can you do that?

·        -Go to the ProEngineer Bin directory   ‚proedirectory‘/bin
·        -Start the proe_borrow.bat



·        -Define the days you want to borrow the license. Min 1 Max 5

Attention!
 
   It is not possible to give a license back sooner then the ending date.
Her e the endingdate (Enddatum) would be Fr.22 April 2011 at 11.59 pm – so I will not be able to give the license back before this time and date.
Please be careful with that, we often have customers who complain that they want to give the license back but they are not able- that is the reason.

·        -Now you are ready to go! 


Do it on your own risk (as usual)
