Overview
Pulse uses a per-server licensing scheme where a valid license must be provided during the Setup Wizard. Three types of licenses are available from the zutubi
website:
- evaluation licenses, which allow you to try a fully-featured installation of pulse™ for a limited time period
- commercial licenses, which entitle the holder to full usage of a particular major version of pulse™; and
- open source/non-profit licenses, which allow approved open source projects and non-profit organisations to use pulse™ for free
For more information regarding licensing, please contact sales@zutubi.com

Updating the License
To update your license, click the "edit" link in the top right hand corner of the "license information" table. You will be presented with a text area where you can enter your new license key.
License Expiry
If you have a time limited license, expiry of the license will stop the core of your pulse™ server from processing build requests. All triggered builds will be ignored until the license is updated.
