1.2.15. License Installation

At each run, the product verifies whether the associated license is valid. In case the validation is not correct, the processing will be interrupted immediately, notifying error in the log application. 

The validation process will give the license as erroneous in the following cases:

• If the license has expired.
• If the license file does not match the installation number and the system id.

The product license consists of a file named "license.lic" with binary content, the generation of which is carried out by b+dgtal specifically for the system from the "installation number" and the System Id. So your generation should be requested from b+dgtal by providing the "Installation Number" and the SapSid.

There are several ways to extract the "Installation Number" and the "SapId". Or from the system information by accessing the following URL:

http://<host>:50<NUMINST>0/startPage

Configuration → Infraestructure → Licenses 

Once this data is provided, b+dgtal will generate a specific license file for the system, which will be valid for one year from the time it was generated. 

The license file provided by b+dgtal must be copied to a local file system path of the server. In case of having a clustered installation, it is necessary to copy the file in each node that is part of the cluster, taking care that each node is copied in the same destination path.

The best thing to do is to place the license file inside a folder named "license" and include in the name of the file the validity date of the license. It is also desirable to make at least one backup of this file.
