There can be only one instance of a SySAM license server
running on a given machine. To set up a SySAM 2.0 license server
on a machine that is already running a SySAM 1.0 license server,
you must migrate the old license server to 2.0. A migrated license
server can serve licenses for both SySAM 1.0- and SySAM 2.0-enabled
products.
See Appendix F, “Migrating the License Server from SySAM 1.0 to SySAM 2.0” in the Sybase Software Asset Management User's Guide for instructions.
Installing a new license server
Insert the CD into the CD drive. You can start the setup program in two ways.
Select Start | Run, browse to the SySAM\windows directory, double-click setup.exe, and click OK in the Run dialog box, or
Open a Command Prompt window, change directories
to SySAM\windows which contains the setup.exe file,
and enter setup.
The Welcome window displays. Click Next.
Accept the license agreement.
Enter or select the destination directory.
Select Custom Installation.
Select SySAM Network License Server and unselect all other options.
Click OK to install the license server.
You cannot start the license server until there is at
least one valid served license installed in the licenses directory.
Obtain the host ID for the machine on which you will be running the license server.
If you have not already done so, generate the licenses for the products you want to install in the Sybase Product Download Center (SPDC).
Copy the license file, which has a .lic extension, to the licenses directory on the network license server machine.
Refresh or restart the license server.
To run the commands for refreshing or restarting the license server, in Windows, go to the %SYBASE%\%SYBASE_SYSAM%\bin directory where %SYBASE%\%SYBASE_SYSAM% is where you have installed SySAM in Windows.
Start the license server if it is not already started by entering:
sysam start
If the license server is already started, use the reread command to make the license server read the new license files:
sysam reread
Verify that the license daemon is running by entering:
sysam status
See Chapter 4, “License Server Administration” in the Sybase Software Asset Management 2.0 User’s Guide for detailed information.
