Modifying Metering Client Settings

Using Metering Client Settings, you can modify client settings for a particular metering client, provided that you have properly installed and configured the client on your host machine. This is useful in cases where you want to direct client updates to a metering server other than the current one. For more information, see About Metering Clients.

There are two ways you can modify client settings:

using the Hummingbird Metering Client Settings dialog box

using the command line

Note:

To activate a metering client, you must either restart or log onto your computer again. The metering client retrieves new client settings whenever it sends an update to the metering server. New client settings take effect beginning on the next update.

You can also modify (global) metering client settings for all metering clients using the Options page of the Metering Server Administration Console. For more information, see the section “Modifying Metering Client Settings” in the Hummingbird Metering Server ReadMe.
