Perform the following steps to install a new license server on a machine separate from the Replication Server you want to run:
Mount the CD by running the following command:
HP-UX
Enter the following where device_name is the name of the CD device drive, and /RS150HP/cdrom is the name of the directory where the CD is to be mounted:
/etc/mount -F cdfs -o ro device_name /RS150HP/cdrom
IBM AIX
Enter the following where device_name is the name of the CD device drive, and /RS150IBM/cdrom is the name of the directory where the CD is to be mounted:
/usr/sbin/mount -v 'cdrfs' -r device_name /RS150IBM/cdrom
The location of the mount command is site-specific and may differ from what is shown in these instructions.
Solaris
The operating system mounts the CD automatically.
Launch the Sybase installer program by entering:
./setup
The Welcome Window displays. Click Next.
Accept the license agreement.
Enter or select the destination directory.
Select the custom installation.
Select only SySAM Network License Server for installation.
Unselect other components, to install the Net License Server only.
Click OK for the installer to install SySAM licensing tools.
Get the host ID for the machine on which the new license server will run. To get the host ID:
Go to $SYBASE/$SYBASE_SYSAM/bin where $SYBASE is the Sybase installation directory and $SYBASE_SYSAM is the directory for SYSAM-2_0.
Enter:
./lmutil lmhostid
If your machine has multiple network adapters, lmutil
lmhostid returns host IDs associated with each adapter.
Choose one of the IDs. Avoid using IDs for removable network adapters.
Save the host ID to use at the Sybase Product Download Center.
Get the license you want to install.
Log in to your account. When you place an order for Sybase software, the Sold To and Ship To contacts become members of the Sybase Product download Center account, and their e-mail addresses are automatically added as a login. The Sold To Contact is also established as the administrator of the account. Each member receives a welcome message from the Sybase Product Download Center, which contains a login name and password. In addition, Technical Support contacts are added as members to the Sybase Product Download Center account.
The administrator can add new members to the Sybase Product Download Center account at any time.
Select the product for which to activate licenses.
Complete the License Activation wizard to generate required licenses. The generated licenses are displayed when the wizard completes.
Click Save All to save the license file. Make sure you have saved the license file with the extension .lic.
Copy the license file in the licenses directory $SYBASE/$SYBASE_SYSAM/licenses on the network license server machine.
Start the SySAM network license server:
Go to:
$SYBASE/$SYBASE_SYSAM/bin
Enter:
sysam start
Validate that the license daemon is running by entering:
sysam status
