About the license key. FileMaker Server uses a license certificate to set the license key. Do not lose this license certificate. Keep a copy of the license certificate in a safe place in case the software ever needs to be reinstalled. With the release of FileMaker Pro Advanced 17, FileMaker began using the License Certificate in place of the License Key. The License Certificate is also utilized during the FileMaker Server installation. The License Certificate tracks the number of user licenses on file, as well as how many users are connected to the FileMaker Server.

The license key ensures adherence to the single user license agreement, which generally allows for use of one (1) copy of the software on a single machine or one instance of a multiple-machine deployment at a time (refer to your Software License). If the license key is invalid or if another copy of the software installed with that same license key is running on the network, the FileMaker Server software displays an error message and does not start.
You can choose to deploy FileMaker Server components across multiple machines that work together to form a single FileMaker Server deployment. You must have a unique license key or obtain a volume license for more than one deployment. You must license one copy of FileMaker Server for each deployment.
