You should inform Qlik if you observe that any other server is using your account license.

For example: let's imagine, the one company has on-permise server Qlik Sense and bought license key. The company wants to do testing or development and decides apply the license on test server(without adding this server to existing cluster). As known we can aplly license key on multiple servers. The servers well be works fine but licenses will be shared between servers. Ones time system administrator, who is do this, is quits his job and the company do not have employee who is know work previous specialist. Of course the company hires a specialist to do this. But he doesn`t know anything about the test server and his problem is that there are not enough license keys on the main server.

In this situation, some kind of online service would be very helpful, which would show the information to the license owner, detailed information about the servers his license was applied.

Or Something like that.

I'm not sure if we can give you this information. I will ask around.

But for this scenario, do you know that you get two extra licenses when you buy the QlikSense enterprise license. One test and one development.

Thanks for the explain but i know about this possibilities.

For this scenario i'm interesting how i can get detailed information about the servers what used my license?

When in the server apply license, i think, the servers qlik.com get this info. And if this information has a servers qlik.com why users, who purchase license, cannot see it?

In the qmc - License usage summary we can see the column named User directory but its show only information about Domain or name the server. If adding in the scenario what the company dont have domain when we will see in the column User directory only name the server who aply license. For the new specialist this information do not help.
Of cource this situation fictional but if users will be can see detailed about servers - its very helped in trobleshooting.
