Switching to a New License

You can switch an SAP Mobile Server from an existing license to a new license, without reinstalling.

  • Unserved license – simply replace the old license file with the new license file in SMP_HOME\Servers\UnwiredServer\licenses\ on each SAP Mobile Server node.
  • Served license – follow the steps below on each SAP Mobile Server node.
  1. Stop SySAM Services:
    1. From a command prompt, change to:
      SMP_HOME\Servers\UnwiredServer\sysam-2.2\bin
    2. Enter the command:
      sysam stop
      Note: Alternatively, you can stop SySAM services from the Services tab of Task Manager.
  2. Copy the license file into the SySAM licenses directory. For example, copy the license to the SMP_HOME\Servers\UnwiredServer\sysam-2.2\licenses directory.
  3. Restart the license server and reread the license:
    1. From a command prompt, change to:
      SMP_HOME\Servers\UnwiredServer\sysam-2.2\bin
    2. If the license server is not already started, start it, by entering:
      sysam start
      Note: Alternatively, you can start SySAM services from the Services tab of Task Manager.
    3. If the license server is already started, use the reread command to make the license server read the new license files:
      sysam reread

      See the SySAM Users Guide for additional details.
