Before you install Replication Server, you must plan the type of SySAM license configuration you want to use. Depending on your configuration choice, you may also need to perform additional preinstallation tasks before installing Replication Server.
SySAM allows you to acquire a license using a local file or you can acquire a license from a network license server. For more information about SySAM licensing concepts and choosing a license model, see the Sybase Software Asset Management Users Guide.
There can only be one instance of a SySAM license server running on
a machine. To set up a SySAM 2 license
server on a machine that is already running SySAM 1, migrate the SySAM 1 license to SySAM 2. A migrated license
server can serve licenses for products that are licensed under both SySAM 1 and SySAM 2.
For instructions on migrating a license server, see the Sybase Software Asset Management Users Guide.

If you use a SySAM license server, you must update the SySAM license server to at least this version of FLEXnet Publisher before installing Replication Server 15.5. To check the version of your license server, examine the license server log or executing the following command:
cd $SYBASE/SYSAM-2_0/bin ./lmutil lmver lmgrd
