Obsidian licensing requires access to Carfey Software's servers to verify licence authenticity. To accommodate those who wish to limit Obsidian hosts with access to the internet, we provide a key server proxy that can be deployed in any servlet container.

In your software package, you would have received the key server proxy as obsidianKeyProxy.war. Within this war, under WEB-INF/classes is com.carfey.properties. Within this file you should set your master key server url and licence key, based on the template provided. Note you should not need to edit the master key server url, which is fixed at "https://licence.carfey.com:8443/obsidianKeyMaster/proxy".

To configure use of the key server proxy by the Obsidian scheduler, simply login to Obsidian Web Admin app as an admin user, access the System tab, select the Licence category and set the address of your deployed key server proxy as the clientKeyServerUrl. Make sure it ends with "/licence".

Then make sure the value for the parameter clientKeyServerUrlBackup is set to Carfey Software's key licence server at https://licence.carfey.com:8443/obsidianKeyMaster/licence. This will give you failover in case your proxy goes down.
