Managing licenses

If you are going to use a network license server, you need the host ID of the machine where the license server will run.

To obtain a host ID, go to $SYBASE/SYSAM-2_0/binand execute:

./lmutil lmhostid

Note If you want to obtain the hostid before installing Replication Server, the lmutil executable binary is available as a standalone download from the Sybase Product Download Center.

The host name for the network license server if you are using a license server.

The TCP/IP port number to be used by the network license server if you are using a license server. If you do not specify the port number, the network license server uses the first available port number in the 27000 through 27009 range.

At the Sybase Product Download Center, you can:

Generate a license file for an order.

Generate a license file for partial fulfilment of an order. For example, if you want ten copies of the software, you can acquire five now and obtain the remaining copies later.

Download ordered software.

Complete the remaining fulfilment for an order.

Rehost a license. To change the machine where a license is located, you must generate a new license file at the Sybase Product Download Center.

View a history of fulfilled licenses and re-download the licenses.
