SySAM consists of two utilities, called lmgr and lmutil, which manage licensing activities, and two services: the license management service, lmgrd, and the SYBASE service. The SySAM lmgrd service contains a pointer that locates the license file for verification and can reside either on the primary server, known as the local license host, or on a remote license host. The services handle requests to validate licensed features.
Using information in the license file, DirectConnect connects to the SySAM daemon and attempts to check out a license for the base DirectConnect feature. If the DirectConnect license is checked out successfully (a license exists in the license file), DirectConnect continues to operate.
If a license does not check out successfully (a license is not found), DirectConnect continues to operate, but it does record this discrepancy in the log.
If you have not registered a license for each service, a pop-up warning will appear for each service, each time that you activate the service. You can enter your license to prevent this from occurring or select cancel, to continue.
