Upgrade one server and export
This procedure requires that Matrix Server be stopped on all servers. Execute the
procedure on one server in the matrix.
1. On one server, start the Management Console. Enter the IP address of the server
on the Matrix Server Connect window and click Configure.
NOTE:
If there is a .matrixrc file on the system running mxconsole, you will
see a Disconnect dialog instead of the Connection Parameters window.
Select Logon to another matrix server and then click Configure.
2. Select the Matrix-Wide Configuration tab and then stop the service on all nodes.
3. Return to the General Settings tab and select Change License File.
4. Enter the path to the new license file or browse to it.
5. Click Apply.
6. Start the matrix service when prompted. (This starts the service on the connected
node.)
7. Export the configuration to all other servers.
8. Start the Matrix Server service on all other nodes.
Refresh the license file
On each server, Matrix Server reads the license file upon startup and at 15-minute
intervals. If you have upgraded the license file on a server and want Matrix Server
to read the new license immediately, use the Refresh License feature (select the server
on the Management Console, right-click, and select Refresh License).
You can also use the following command:
mx server read_license <server>
Supported Matrix Server features
