The instructions in this section assume that you have already installed a Sybase product that required SySAM.
If you purchased more than one copy of Replication Server, you were provided with:
A Sybase License Certificate that shipped with the Replication Server product, showing that you purchased the physical product, and;
An additional Sybase License Certificate that lists all of the licensing information for your additional seats.
Even if you purchased more than one additional copy
of Replication Server, you may only have a single Sybase License
Certificate that represents all of your additional copies.
Before you begin, you must have both the Sybase License Certificate that came with the software, as well as any additional Sybase License Certificate indicating the licensing information of your additional copies of Replication Server.
Installing additional
licenses of Replication Server
While in SySAM, click More. A blank SySAM screen appears.
Enter information from the Sybase License Certificate for Replication Server:
Order Number – your Sybase order number.
Feature Name – REP_SERVER.
Feature Count – n.
Software Version – 12.6.
Authorization Code – the REP_SERVER license key listed in your additional Sybase License Certificate.
The n for Feature Count represents the number of copies listed on your Sybase License Certificate. For example, if you purchased a total of 5 copies of Replication Server, your secondary Sybase License Certificate should show a feature count of 4.
Use these instructions to update your license information manually if you are installing:
Additional licenses of Replication Server after you have already loaded and configured your first Replication Server version 12.6 in another session.
Your first Replication Server license after you have previously installed and enabled SySAM through Adaptive Server version 12.0 or later.
Adding additional licenses to SySAM at a later
time
Log on to the license host, where the license manager is installed.
Check to see that lmgrd and Sybase daemons are running:
$SYBASE/$SYBASE_SYSAM/bin/lmutil lmstat -c
If the license daemon is not running, manually start lmgrd:
$SYBASE/$SYBASE_SYSAM/bin/ lmgrd -c $SYBASE/$SYSAM/licenses/license.dat \ -l $SYBASE/$SYSAM/lmgrd.log&
Launch the license manager:
$SYBASE/SYSAM-1_0/bin/lmgr
Mac: If you are using a “headless” Mac without a monitor, specify lmgr -I.
Click Yes when prompted: “Do you have Sybase Software Asset Management Certificates to register?” The SySAM License Manager screen prompts you for:
Order Number – your Sybase order number.
Feature Name – REP_SERVER.
Feature Count – n.
Software Version – 12.6.
Authorization Code – the REP_SERVER license key listed in your additional Sybase License Certificate.
Mac: In the command line, the license manager prompts: “Which license scheme do you wish to use?”
Select “L” to indicate that the SySAM server is on your current machine.
Click More until you have entered all available licenses.
Click Done.
Because you are adding additional licenses to an existing file, you must notify the license daemons of the changes:
Before you issue the reread command, verify that SySAM is running:
$SYBASE/$SYBASE_SYSAM/bin/lmutil lmstat -c
Shut down the server to which you are adding the new license.
Run the license management utility lmutil lmreread from the $SYBASE/$SYSAM/bin/directory:
$SYBASE/SYSAM-1_0/bin/lmutil lmreread
The new license is appended to the end of the license.dat file.
If you encounter problems with new licenses, check the lmgrd.log file in the $SYBASE/$SYBASE_SYSAM/log directory to see that there were properly appended to the license file.
