        <h2><a name="kanchor108"></a>Selecting the License Managers</h2>
        <p>The first step to using WlmAdmin is to select what License Managers you 
 are interested in monitoring.</p>
        <h3>To Create a List of Defined License Managers</h3>
        <ol>
            <li class="Numbered_Steps" value="1">Go to the <span style="font-weight: bold;">Edit</span> menu and select the <span style="font-weight: bold;">Defined 
 Server List</span> command.</li>
            <li class="Numbered_Steps" value="2">Type a License Manager name and click the <span style="font-weight: bold;">Add</span> 
 button to add a server to the list. </li>
        </ol>
        <h3 class="SpacedHead">Tip</h3>
        <p class="SpacedPara2">If you are not sure of the License Manager computer’s host name, you can wait for WlmAdmin to display License Manager in the Subnet Servers area of the left-hand pane of the main window 
 to see what License Managers are available on the network. </p>
        <ol start="3">
            <li class="Numbered_Steps" value="3">Once a License Manager is defined, you can add more or select a License Manager and click <span style="font-weight: bold;">Remove</span> to remove it from the list.</li>
            <li class="Numbered_Steps" value="4">Click <span style="font-weight: bold;">OK</span> 
 to return to the main WlmAdmin screen. </li>
        </ol>
        <p class="SFNT_Note">WlmAdmin may take time in showing an error message if you have clicked a License Manager (in the list of Defined Servers)  that is either not running or does not exist. WlmAdmin attempts to find the License Manager and shows an error message when it fails in doing so. </p>
        <h3>To Discover All License Managers on Your Network Subnet</h3>
        <p>Go to the left-hand pane of the main WlmAdmin window and double-click 
 <span style="font-weight: bold;">Subnet Servers</span>. WlmAdmin will 
 broadcast to the network to discover all License Managers and display them 
 here.</p>
        <h3>To Refresh the Network Display</h3>
        <p>Right-click on Defined Servers or Subnet Servers and select <span style="font-weight: bold;">Refresh</span> 
 to tell WlmAdmin to display new information on that group of License Managers. 
 You may also select <span style="font-weight: bold;">Refresh All</span> 
 from the View menu to refresh the display for all License Managers shown.</p>
