Information processing system, information processing device, information processing method, and information processing program

Abstract

This prevents the copying of software running in a virtual environment and reduces the time required for license reapplication. [Solution] In the information processing system 15, the server has a pre-processing unit that, before reinstalling the virtual environment, sends instruction information containing first identification information of the virtual environment to the license server, obtains permission information, and registers it in the first storage unit; an application processing unit that, when the reinstallation of the virtual environment is completed, sends re-application information containing second identification information issued and permission information registered in the first storage unit to the license server, and obtains operational license information including the second identification information; and an access control unit that, based on the operational license information, allows the use of the software by the user terminal. The license server has a license management unit that, when instruction information is obtained, generates permission information and sends it to the information processing unit, and when re-application information is obtained, generates operational license information and sends it to the information processing unit.

Claims

1. An information processing system comprising an information processing device that installs a virtual environment and provides the virtual environment to a user terminal, and a license server that manages the licenses of software that runs on the virtual environment, The aforementioned information processing device is Before reinstalling the virtual environment, a preprocessing unit sends instruction information containing the first identification information of the virtual environment to the license server, thereby obtaining permission information from the license server and registering the permission information in the first storage unit. An application processing unit obtains operational license information including the second identification information by sending a re-application information to the license server, which contains the second identification information issued when the reinstallation of the virtual environment is completed and the permission information registered in the first storage unit. The system includes an access control unit that, based on the aforementioned operational license information, allows the user terminal to use the software, The aforementioned license server The license management unit has the following functions: when it obtains the instruction information, it generates the permission information and transmits the permission information to the information processing device; and when it obtains the re-application information, it generates the operation license information and transmits the operation license information to the information processing device. An information processing system characterized by the following:

2. The aforementioned license management department, When a license is granted to the software running on the virtual environment, the first identification information is registered in the second storage unit. The information processing system according to claim 1, characterized in that, when the first identification information set in the instruction information acquired from the information processing device is registered in the second storage unit, the permission information is transmitted to the information processing device, and the first identification information and the permission information are associated and registered in the second storage unit.

3. The aforementioned license management department, The information processing system according to claim 2, characterized in that it receives the re-application information from the information processing device, and generates the operation license information when the permission information of the re-application information matches the permission information registered in the second storage unit.

4. The information processing system according to claim 1, characterized in that the pre-processing unit transmits the instruction information, which includes the first identification information and the unique information of the user terminal, to the license server, and the application processing unit obtains the operation license information, which includes the second identification information and the unique information.

5. Before reinstalling the virtual environment, a preprocessing unit sends instruction information containing the first identification information of the virtual environment to the license server, obtains permission information from the license server, and registers the permission information in the first storage unit. An application processing unit obtains operational license information including the second identification information by sending a re-application information to the license server, which contains the second identification information issued when the reinstallation of the virtual environment is completed and the permission information registered in the first storage unit. Based on the aforementioned operational license information, an access control unit allows the use of user terminals for software running on the virtual environment. An information processing device characterized by having the following features.

6. An information processing method for an information processing system having an information processing device that installs a virtual environment and provides the virtual environment to a user terminal, and a license server that manages licenses for software that runs on the virtual environment, Before reinstalling the virtual environment, the information processing device sends instruction information containing the first identification information of the virtual environment to the license server. When the license server obtains the instruction information, it generates permission information and transmits the permission information to the information processing device. The information processing device obtains permission information from the license server and registers the permission information in the first storage unit. The information processing device transmits to the license server a re-application information set with the second identification information issued when the reinstallation of the virtual environment is completed and the permission information registered in the first storage unit. When the license server obtains the re-application information, it generates the operational license information and transmits the operational license information to the information processing device. The information processing device acquires operational license information including the second identification information, The information processing device, based on the operational license information, permits the use of the software by the user terminal. An information processing method characterized by performing a process.

7. Before reinstalling the virtual environment, instruction information containing the first identification information of the virtual environment is sent to the license server, permission information is obtained from the license server, and the permission information is registered in the first storage unit. When the reinstallation of the virtual environment is completed, the second identification information issued and the permission information registered in the first storage unit are set to a re-application information which is sent to the license server, thereby obtaining operational license information including the second identification information. Based on the aforementioned operational license information, the use of user terminals for software running on the virtual environment is permitted. An information processing program characterized by having a computer perform the processing.
