License installation

[mmori7]

Hi,

I'm looking for the pdf to install a new pack of license, like adding ip station license. I tried to find it but what I found it's not what i'm looking for.

I remember how but the last time I did it it's a few mounth ago and I don't want to do something wrong.

It's a 8700 3.1

I need to do it in command line,

What I remember, it's to download the file using web interface and then LOADLICENSE....for the main office
For the remote site I have to ftp the license in the /var/ftp/pub and LOAADLICENSE[filename]...

So I don<t remember every command..

thanks you

Mick

For remote sites you copy the license files first to the main and stage them in /var/home/ftp/pub (/var/home/ftp for R11 only)
From the main, you can copy the lic files to all the servers and only use the main's Modem connection. You don't have to dial into each one individually, unless the network is not working.

Be careful to load the mid 1 (m1)license on the main active which will also load the main standby. Bugs in this tool allow installing the main license on LSP and ESS / LSP licenses on the main. Be sure which you're working on. "statuslicense -v" will return a previously licensed RFA SID and MID for each server where you use this command.

I always make a backup of the license for each server. This is because loadlicense will convert this file to the /etc/opt/ecs/lsfile and the source file will be removed.

cp s12345v52m2-090526-210430.lic s12345v52m2-090526-210430.lic.bak
cp s12345v52m3-090526-210430.lic s12345v52m2-090526-210430.lic.bak
cp s12345v52m4-090526-210430.lic s12345v52m2-090526-210430.lic.bak

You can copy each ESS / LSP license to the appropriate server using scp.

cat /etc/opt/defty/lspNodeList
192.168.0.102 LSP_Dallas
192.168.0.103 LSP_Houston
192.168.0.104 LSP_Austin

scp is secure copy and will prompt you for your current login's password.

scp s71598v52m2-090526-210430.lic 192.168.0.102:/var/home/ftp/pub
scp s71598v52m3-090526-210430.lic 192.168.0.103:/var/home/ftp/pub
scp s71598v52m4-090526-210430.lic 192.168.0.104:/var/home/ftp/pub

now you can connect to each server.

loadlicense (sudo loadlicense for R11 and R12)
by default, this command will find the latest .lic file in /var/home/ftp/pub. It is smart to use
"loadlicense -i s71598v52m2-090526-210430.lic"
and load it.
