    HATS has previously investigated using a Rational License Server for licensing. However, current design of the HATS runtime does not allow for usage of the License Server for licensing, and at this time, there is no plan to implement this feature.
    You should only have to import the HATS license jar file one time. Please make sure that both "Apply to all new projects created in any workspace" is checked. If you want the license file to be applied to existing projects, also check "Apply to all existing projects in the current workspace."
