Adding feature licenses

To add features for which you have licenses

1. Verify that the license manager software is running. See “SySAM administration”.

2. Log on to the machine where the license manager is installed (license host).

3. Launch the license manager:

   $SYBASE/$SYBASE_SYSAM/bin/lmgr
   

4. You should see the following prompt:

   Do you have Sybase Software Asset Management Certificates to register?
   

   Click Yes.

5. The SySAM License Manager window that appears prompts you for:

   • Order Number

   • Feature Name

   • Feature Count

   • Software Version

   • Authorization Code

6. Click More until you have entered all licenses.

7. Click Done.

8. Because you are adding licenses to an existing configuration, you must notify the license daemons of the changes by issuing a reread command.

   Run the license management utility lmutil lmreread from the $SYBASE/$SYSAM/bin directory:

   $SYBASE/$SYBASE_SYSAM/bin/lmutil lmreread
   

9. The new license is appended to the end of the license.dat file.

If you encounter problems with new licenses, check the lmgrd.log file in the $SYBASE/$SYBASE_SYSAM/log directory to verify that they were properly appended to the license file.
