SOFTWARE LICENSING
This software is furnished under the licensing provisions
of Digital Equipment Corporation’s Standard Terms and
Conditions. For more information about Digital’s licens-
ing terms and policies, contact your local Digital office.
You must have a separate license for each CPU on
which you will be using the software product (except as
otherwise specified by Digital). Each CPU must first be
licensed regardless of whether the software distribution
is installed from a local load device or from a remote
ULTRIX system via an Ethernet network.
LICENSE OPTIONS
Extending User Login Limitation
To increase the login user limit beyond the base system
initial limit of two users, you must purchase the appro-
priate capacity license. The capacity limits as depicted
by the various options do not necessarily reflect system
performance. The capacity licenses are a legal require-
ment.
The option to entend the initial two-user login limit is pro-
vided through LMF Product Authorization Keys (PAKS).
The ability of a system to support the licensed number
of users will depend in part upon the hardware config-
uration of the system and the user application. (Refer
to the
SOFTWARE OPTIONS
section for ordering infor-
mation.)
Encryption License Option
To use the DES cryptographic software, you must pur-
chase the appropriate encryption license. This license
provides the legal ability to run the encryption and de-
cryption algorithms on the system. U.S. State Depart-
ment regulations govern the shipment of the crypto-
graphic code outside the United States and Canada.
UWS Server License Option
A UWS Server License is required to run an X ap-
plication from a host system such as a timesharing
VAX, VAXserver or DECsystem. Please refer to SPD
28.22.xx for ordering information.
LICENSE MANAGEMENT
License Management Facility (LMF)
ULTRIX supports Digital’s License Management Facility
(LMF), which is a component of the overall Digital Dis-
tributed Software Licensing Architecture (DDSLA). The
LMF provides on-line checking of software licenses and
enables easier software management. The facility in-
corporates support for two types of licenses, availability
and activity. The first version of LMF in ULTRIX V4.0 is
limited to single node capability.
DEC LMF License Usage Monitor for ULTRIX
DEC LMF License Usage Monitor for ULTRIX Version
1.0 is a license management tool that complements
the ULTRIX License Management Facility (LMF) Ver-
sion 1.0.
It is for system managers that want an application de-
signed to assign names to RISC ULTRIX Personal Use
Licensed products and to monitor the usage of those
licenses. Please refer to SPD 41.68.xx for more infor-
mation.
The right to use DEC LMF License Usage Monitor for
ULTRIX is included with the ULTRIX Operating System
License. The binaries and documentation are not in-
cluded in the operating system media and must be or-
dered as a separate media and documentation package.
Refer to the
SOFTWARE OPTIONS
section for ordering
information.
