Note: AppScan® Source for Analysis, AppScan® Source for Automation, the AppScan® Source Command Line InterfaceClient, and the AppScan® Source for Development plug-in for Visual Studio require a connection to the AppScan® Enterprise Server. The AppScan® Source for Development plug-ins (for Eclipse and RAD - and including Worklight Appliction Scanning) can be used without the AppScan® Enterprise Server. In server mode, you connect to the server to run scans and access shared data. In local mode, AppScan® Source for Development runs without ever connecting to a server - but you cannot access shared items such as filters, scan configurations, and custom rules. If you are using a floating license in local mode, you must still have a connection to the license server to be able to use AppScan® Source for Development.
Note: When using AppScan® Source for Development version 10.0.8 or older, Eclipse must be configured with Java 8.

Licensing

To acquire and apply a new AppScan® Source, first obtain the appropriate license through the HCL FlexNet portal, then apply the license using the AppScan Source License Manager. For complete information on licensing for AppScan® Source, see How to obtain and apply licenses for AppScan Source products.

Approximately 15 GB of available drive space. Additional drive space may be required when scanning large applications. This includes additional space that may be required to accommodate files that are written to your AppScan Source data directory.
Note: 15 GB is the minimum amount of space required to install AppScan Source and run basic scans. However, required drive space varies depending on the application being scanned. We require a minimum of 8 GB of RAM and recommend 15-20 GB of free drive space. You may also need to increase your Windows page file requirement (see Tips to improve PC performance in Windows 10 for more information).
