Replacing a Veritas InfoScale Enterprise demo license with a permanent license
When a VCS demo key license expires, you can replace it with a permanent license using the vxlicinstupgrade(1) program.
To replace a demo key
- Make sure you have permissions to log in as root on each of the nodes in the cluster.
- Shut down VCS on all nodes in the cluster:
# hastop -all -force
This command does not shut down any running applications.
- Enter the permanent license key using the following command on each node:
# vxlicinstupgrade -k license key
- Make sure demo licenses are replaced on all cluster nodes before starting VCS.
# vxlicrep
- Start VCS on each node:
# hastart
