Configuring Initial Settings for the License Server on Solaris Platforms

For server licenses, you configure the initial properties for the license server and install a license, before you can use the SAE. You can also customize license server configuration to send e-mail notifications of alarms, set a threshold for alarms, tune performance of the license server engine, and change directory and file information.

For information about customizing configuration for the license server, see Chapter 25, Customizing and Managing the License Server.

The license server monitors the consumption of the license resources and allocates licenses to client SAEs up to the number supported by the license. The license server obtains most of its information from the directory. A local configuration file, /opt/UMC/licsvr/etc/bootstrap.properties, stores initial configuration information that cannot be stored in the directory, such as the attributes to connect to the directory. Use the information in this section to create and modify the configuration file.

Use the local configuration tool to configure the bootstrap.properties file.

For information about using the local configuration tool, see Chapter 37, Configuring Local Properties.

To create the local configuration file and configure the properties for the license server:

  1. On the SAE host, log in as root or as an authorized nonroot admin user.
  2. Start the local configuration tool from the license server installation directory.
  3. /opt/UMC/licsvr/etc/config -l
    
    
    

The first time that you issue this command, it creates the bootstrap.properties file and displays the local configuration tool window for the properties.

  1. Configure the properties by using the field descriptions in Directory Fields for License Server and Miscellaneous Fields for License Server.
  2. Click OK.
