Procedure 5-6 To change the default 5620 SAM license expiry
notification date
The 5620 SAM raises a daily warning alarm as the expiry date of the 5620 SAM license
approaches. By default, the first alarm is raised seven days before the expiry date.
Perform this procedure to change the default 5620 SAM license expiry notification date.
1 Log in to the main server station as the samadmin user.
2 Navigate to the server configuration directory, typically
/opt/5620sam/server/nms/config.
3 Create a backup copy of the nms-server.xml file.
4 Open the nms-server.xml file using a plain-text editor.
5 Locate the following XML tag in the nms-server.xml file:
<license
timedLicenseExpiryCount="value"
where value is the number of days prior to timed license expiry.
6 Modify the value to the required number of days to be notified before expiry.
7 Save and close the nms-server.xml file.
8 Open a console window.
9 Navigate to the server binary directory, typically /opt/5620sam/server/nms/bin.
10 Enter the following:
bash$ ./nmsserver.bash read_config ↵
The main server reads the nms-server.xml file and the time period is updated.
Procedure 5-7 To distribute a license key to all 7705 SAR-H nodes

3 The Distribute License Key dialog box opens.
Caution — Contact your Alcatel-Lucent technical support
representative before you attempt to modify the nms-server.xml file.
Modifying the nms-server.xml file can have serious consequences that
can include service disruption.
