ADEPT2Service
```
public interface LicenceManager
extends ADEPT2Service
```
The licence manager provides the licence information for all services and clients of the corresponding server. Additionally, it validates the licence. It is a service started very early in the bootstrapping process.
Services checking for violations can log them. However, not every violation stops the corresponding service. Violations will be checked every day, which may lead to a shutdown of the system.
The licence information is retrieved from an external source when starting this licence manager.
