3.

Save the license file you receive from HP in a convenient directory on a host that can be accessed by

the HP SFS system.

4.

At this point, it is convenient to use two windows; one to log in to the HP SFS system and the other to

view the license file (in, for example, your email system).

5.

On one window, log in to the administration server and use the

vi

(1) editor to edit the

/var/flexlm/license.master

file.

CAUTION:

Do not simply replace the existing

/var/flexlm/license.master

file with the

new license file. If you do so, you will lose the existing licenses.

The license file from HP will be similar to the following:

SERVER this_host ANY
USE_SERVER
VENDOR HPQ
INCREMENT SFSOSTCAP HPQ 1.0 permanent 50 HOST HOSTID="000bcd505cbb \
000bcd827644" NOTICE="License Number 7YCYHDHTEHDY" \
SIGN=8067B9DBE52

The existing contents of the

/var/flexlm/license.master

license file will be similar to the

following:

SERVER this_host ANY
USE_SERVER
VENDOR HPQ
INCREMENT SFSMDSCAP HPQ 1.0 permanent 1 HOSTID="000bcd505cbb \
000bcd827644" NOTICE="License Number 7YCYHDHTEYAH" \
SIGN=F3D03152BE24
INCREMENT SFSOSTCAP HPQ 1.0 permanent 100 HOSTID="000bcd505cbb \
000bcd827644" NOTICE="License Number 7YCYHDHTEYDE" \
SIGN=80B1511C256A
INCREMENT SFSOSTCAP HPQ 1.0 permanent 50 HOST HOSTID="000bcd505cbb \
000bcd827644" NOTICE="License Number 7YCYHDHTEEYH" \
SIGN=8067B9D0T80A

On the administration server, edit the

/var/flexlm/license.master

file so that the

INCREMENT

line from the new license file is appended to the end of the existing content. (For

information on editing the

/var/flexlm/license.master

file, see Section 3.11.3.) The license

file will now contain something similar to the following:

SERVER this_host ANY
USE_SERVER
VENDOR HPQ
INCREMENT SFSMDSCAP HPQ 1.0 permanent 1 HOSTID="000bcd505cbb \
000bcd827644" NOTICE="License Number 7YCYHDHTEYAH" \
SIGN=F3D03152BE24
INCREMENT SFSOSTCAP HPQ 1.0 permanent 100 HOSTID="000bcd505cbb \
