Using the SySAM license manager

NoteThis option is not available for HP Itanium.

If you install Replication Server without the appropriate license information, Replication Server reports a license error message during start-up.

To register your product correctly, you should read and understand the SySAM licensing information in Appendix A, “Sybase Software Asset Management (SySAM)” before you start this portion of the installation.

NoteThe following license manager instructions are for the installation of your first Sybase product that uses SySAM. Instructions differ based on your needs. See Table 2-2 for a list of your options.
