-lic
Specify this option for when a license is updated. The HDLM license is provided
via a license key or license key file. A license key file is a file that stores the
HDLM license key.
If you use a license key file:
Store the license key file named
hdlm_license
directly under the Windows
installation drive, and then execute the
set -lic
operation. A message
confirming that the license key has been registered is displayed, depending
on the license key type defined in the license key file. When a temporary
license key or emergency license key has been registered, the expiration
period is displayed (KAPL01071-I, KAPL01072-I).
If you do not use a license key file:
When the
set -lic
operation is executed, a message (KAPL01068-I)
asking the user to enter a license key appears. Enter the license key. A
message confirming that the license key has been registered is displayed,
depending on the license key type described in the license key file. For a
temporary license key or emergency license key, the expiration period is also
displayed (KAPL01071-I, KAPL01072-I).
Table 6-6: License Key Types lists the license key types.
