License information

Sybase Search Content Adapter uses the Sybase Software Asset Management (SySAM) licensing mechanism for license administration and asset management tasks. After you have purchased the Sybase Search Content Adapter add-on option, go to the SPDC Web site to generate and download the license. For more information about SySAM, see the Sybase Software Asset Management User’s Guide.

Sybase Search Content Adapter supports the same license models as the DI Suite Sybase Search. Therefore, to install Content Adapter you must generate the license similar to that generated for Sybase Search. For example, if Sybase Search uses the unserved license model, then you must generate unserved license for Content Adapter.

For more information on license models that DI Suite supports, see Chapter 1, “Before You Begin,” in the Sybase Data Integration Suite 1.2 Installation Guide.

License installation steps

The license installation steps are different for served and unserved license model.

StepsInstalling with a served license model

  1. Copy the license file to the licenses directory on the network license server machine.

  2. Refresh or restart the license server.

StepsInstalling with an unserved license model

  1. Copy the license file to the install_location\SYSAM-2_0\licenses directory.

    NoteBy default, the SYSAM licenses directory is located in the install_location\SYSAM-2_0 directory. If the container on which you want to install the Content Adapter is configured with a different SySAM licenses directory, you can find the directory location by looking up the sysam.license.dir system property in the install_location/Search-3_5/OmniQ/config/Container.ID.xml file, where ID is the container ID of the container on which you want to install the Content Adapter.
