Upgrading Afaria Licenses

Various mechanisms in Afaria Adminstrator allow you to change the serial number to support additional options and features.

1. Obtain a new serial number.

   Sybase license fullfilment generates an Afaria license string that includes a new serial number. For subsequent option upgrades, use the same serial number to incrementally update licenses.

2. Define new software licenses in Afaria Administrator.
   The License Compliance page appears empty until you define licensing details. Once you have defined these software licenses, the page shows data for Client category, Manufacturer, Application, Size, Version, # (number) Purchased, Effective and Expiration dates, and any Notes you add. Initially, licenses are sorted by Client category, Manufacturer, then Application. See Afaria Reference | Platform > Server Configuration > License Compliance.
