Parameters

slot slot-number: Specifies the member ID of an IRF member device.

Usage guidelines

Each device has a unique SN and DID. When you register a license for the device, you must provide its SN and DID.

The DID changes each time you use the license compress command to compress the license storage. Use the display license device-id command to identify the up-to-date DID each time you register licenses.

The DID can be generated as a string or .id file.

·     If the DID is a string, enter the string when you register the license with the license center.

·     If the DID is contained in an .id file, upload the file when you register the license with the license center.

Examples

# Display the SN and DID of IRF member device 1.

<Sysname> display license device-id slot 1 

SN: 210235A1ETH158000039

Parameters

file-name: Specifies the file path, a case-sensitive string of 1 to 127 characters. The activation file must be valid and stored on the device.

slot slot-number: Specifies the member ID of an IRF member device.

Usage guidelines

For a successful license activation file installation, make sure the following requirements are met:

·     The SN and DID used for registering the feature license match the current SN and DID of the device.

·     No one else is installing an activation file on the device you are working with.

Activation files are device locked. A licensed feature can run on the IRF member device even after the device joins another IRF fabric.

For a license-based feature package to run correctly on an IRF fabric:

·     Install one license for the feature package on each member in the fabric.

·     Make sure the licenses installed on the members are the same.

Examples

# Install the activation file 20110813.ak on IRF member device 2.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] license activation-file install flash:/license/20110813.ak slot 2

This operation might take some time. Do not perform any other operations until the operation is completed or a failure message is displayed. Please wait...

Parameters

file-name: Specifies the file path, a case-sensitive string of 1 to 127 characters.

slot slot-number: Specifies the member ID of an IRF member device.

Usage guidelines

A feature cannot run on the device after you uninstall all its activation files.

Use this command to revoke an unexpired license if you want to transfer the license from one device to another. For a successful uninstallation, make sure no one else is uninstalling an activation file on the device you are working with.

When an activation file is uninstalled, the system creates an Uninstall file. Use this file together with the SN and DID of the transfer destination to register the license for the transfer destination.

Trial licenses are not transferrable. When you uninstall the activation file of a trial license, no Uninstall file is created.

Examples

# Uninstall the activation file flash:/license/20110813.ak from IRF member device 2.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] license activation-file uninstall flash:/license/20110813.ak slot 2

This operation might take some time. Do not perform any other operations until t

he operation is completed or a failure message is displayed. Please wait...    

Uninstall file: flash:/license/20110813.uak

Parameters

slot slot-number: Specifies the member ID of an IRF member device.

Usage guidelines

Use this command if the free license storage (see the display license feature command) is not sufficient.

This command clears invalid licenses (expired licenses and uninstalled licenses) and Uninstall files from the license storage area. Back up the Uninstall files before you compress the license storage.

The DID changes each time the license storage is compressed. Before performing a compression, make sure all licenses registered with the old DID have been installed. They cannot be installed after the compression.

For a successful compression, make sure no one else is compressing the license storage on the device you are working with.

Examples

# Compress the license storage on IRF member device 2.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] license compress slot 2

This command will delete all data relevant to uninstalled and expired keys/licen

ses, including Uninstall keys, and create a new device ID for activation keys/fi

les. Make sure you have saved the Uninstall keys so you can apply for a new acti

vation key/file for the unexpired licenses that were covered by the uninstalled

activation keys/files.                                                         

Are you sure you want to continue? [Y/N]: y
