Installing FSA
To set up FSA, you need to follow the instructions for installing the Integrity Lifecycle Manager server and then configure that server as a proxy. For detailed instructions on installing the Integrity Lifecycle Manager server, see the Integrity Lifecycle Manager Installation and Upgrading Guide.

Generally, you can choose to use the embedded database for the proxy installation. Because the proxy gets its configuration management information from the host server, local database storage is minimal.

For a remote proxy, the installation must be performed on a separate machine. For a peer-to-peer configuration, the FSA can be configured on the same machine.
Setting Up FlexNet
Once you complete the server installation, the next step is to configure FlexNet licensing for FSA. FlexNet licensing for FSA is separate from the Integrity Lifecycle Manager server. The FlexNet server you use to support any standard installation can also be used to support licensing for FSA; however, users connecting through a proxy to the Integrity Lifecycle Manager server should be licensed on the central Integrity Lifecycle Manager server.
Consult your license file to see if you are licensed to implement FSA.
One license key per proxy is required. User licenses are only required at the location of the Integrity Lifecycle Manager server, not at the proxy location. The proxy administrative user also requires a license and can be set to an actual user on the system.
Each proxy must access a FlexNet server. Depending upon your network implementation and security, you may require one FlexNet server per proxy. For more information on licensing, see the Integrity Lifecycle Manager Installation and Upgrading Guide.
