Managing remote access

3–21

installation, make sure these files are the same on both
the Administration and MDS servers:

/var/flexlm/license.master
/var/flexlm/license.lic

7.

Copy the license files to the MDS server, as shown in the following example, where

south2

is the

MDS server.

# scp /var/flexlm/* south2:/var/flexlm

8.

On the administration server, enter the

show license

command and examine the output to ensure

that the licenses are as expected (that is, the license information has been updated).

9.

Log in to the MDS server and enter the

show license

command. Examine the output to ensure that

the licenses are as expected (that is, the license information has been updated).

3.11.5Upgrading from an SFSMDSOST license

The

SFSMDSOST

license limits the HP SFS system to an administration and MDS Server, that is, no Object

Storage Servers can be used. If you upgrade your system by adding Object Storage Servers, you must return

your

SFSMDSOST

license to HP and obtain an

SFSMDSCAP

(MDS capacity) license and one or more

SFSOSTCAP

(OST capacity) licenses. When you receive the new license files, use the process described in

Section 3.11.4 to add the

SFSMDSCAP

and

SFSOSTCAP

INCREMENT

lines to the

/var/flexlm/license.master

file. You do not have to delete the

INCREMENT

line for the

SFSMDSOST

license. However, it will be ignored once the

SFSMDSCAP

license is present.

3.11.6Deleting all licenses

CAUTION:

If all licenses are deleted from the system, no file systems can be created on the system.

It is possible to delete all licenses from the system, although this is usually only done in the factory to delete

“demo” licenses before the system is shipped. If it is necessary to delete all licenses on the system, enter the

following commands on the administration server and on the MDS server:

# rm /var/flexlm/*
# service hpls_flexlm restart

3.12 Managing remote access

You can allow users to access the HP SFS system remotely without a password by creating authorizations in

the system database. An authorization contains the public key of the user’s account on the remote system.

This section describes the following tasks:

Creating authorizations (Section 3.12.1)

Deleting authorizations (Section 3.12.2)

Viewing authorizations (Section 3.12.3)

Setting up ssh access to the system alias (Section 3.12.4)
