Adding or Updating the License Key
To update an evaluation license of the ExtremeWare EPICenter to a permanent license, or
to install a license key after the original installation is complete, use the
instlic utility
provided.
DO NOT reinstall the software if you have any data or configurations of value in the
EPICenter database. Re-installation will re-initialize the database.
To update your license key, follow these steps:
1 Select Run... from the Start menu, or start an MS-DOS command window.
Because you must enter the license key on the command line, you cannot run
this utility from a Windows Explorer or My Computer window.
2 Enter the command
<EPICenter_install_dir>\instlic <key>
<EPICenter_install_dir>
is the directory (path) where you installed the EPICenter
components. If you installed in the default directory, the path is
c:\EPC3_1\
<key>
is the 14-character license key, starting with “EP,” that you obtained from
Extreme Networks. Type the key exactly as it is shown in the e-mail you received from
Extreme Networks. The key is case sensitive.
For example:
c:\EPC3_1\instlic EP1a2B3c4D5+eF
If the license update is successful, the message “License Installed” is displayed.
If the update is not successful, the message “
Invalid argument key : <key>”is
displayed.
<key> is the license key you entered with the instlic command. Verify that
you typed the key exactly as shown in the e-mail you received from Extreme Networks.
