Updating your License

SAP Sybase Event Stream Processor requires a valid license. If your evaluation license expires, update your license.

When you install Event Stream Processor, you are prompted to provide a license type. The installer, based on your selection, copies the license file to the appropriate location and generates an esp_license.prop file under $ESP_HOME/sysam.

If you installed using an evaluation license, or have since purchased a different license type, perform the following procedure to update your license:

Populate the <Install_Dir>/SYSAM-2_0/licenses directory.
1. For an unserved license, copy the unserved .lic file to <Install_Dir>/SYSAM-2_0/licenses.
2. For a served license, create a token .lic file and add it to the <Install_Dir>/SYSAM-2_0/licenses directory to link to the license server. If, for example, the license server is called my_license_server, create the text file <Install_Dir>/SYSAM-2_0/licenses/my_license_server.lic and add the following content:
  
  SERVER my_license_server ANY
  
  USE_SERVER

Edit the licence type (LT) parameter for the esp_license.prop file:

Navigate to $ESP_HOME/sysam and open esp_license.prop with a text editor.
Change the LT parameter to reflect the value present in your SySAM license file or server. Available license types are:

Option	Description
CP	CPU license; used in production environments
SF	Standby
DT	Develop and Test
AC	OEM Production
BC	OEM Standby
EV	Evaluation
Unknown	Select if you are unsure of the license type needed

Save and close the file to finish updating your license.
