In RAMP tools à If any server definition has 'Use liteclient license' ticked, newlook is requested to start up using a liteclient license.      

On command handler tabs à If the connected server has 'Use liteclient license' ticked, newlook is requested to start up using a liteclient license.     

Other Types of Newlook Licenses

If a liteclient license is not to be used, then VLF_RAMP starts newlook without specifying a license type. This means that newlook will use its own logic to determine what type of license should be used. It will do this based on how your newlook environment is configured, which is usually determined by you when you installed or upgraded newlook.

The Limit column tells you total number of license seats and the Count column how many seats are currently in use.

Forcing Newlook to start using a specific licence type
