The Sentinel Runtime Environment is required on the client computer to enable the use of a Sentinel softkey. Installing a single-user Sentinel Softkey Preparing the Client computer

This reduces the chance of losing your softkey license as a result of computer failure or triggering the Sentinel clone detection feature which may render your softkey license unusable. If you plan to modify the configuration of a physical or virtual workstation with a softkey installed, you should re-host the softkey to a different computer while the modifications are made and then return the softkey to the reconfigured machine. If you are unable, or unwilling, to exchange XML data files to facilitate license instantiation, updating and/or rehosting, softkeys may not be appropriate for your network environment. The XML data files contain strings of data that can be several thousand characters long. Moving/Rehosting softkeys between computers on your network requires the ability to exchange XML data files between the current host computer and the new host computer (Photon Engineering is not involved). Instantiation of a softkey license requires the ability to exchange XML data files between the license host computer and Photon Engineering.
