DESCRIPTION
The LicensePower/iFOR Administration tool, i4admin, completely manages the LicensePower/iFOR
licensing system. The tool can perform the following tasks:
• Perform basic license administration (e.g., adding and deleting licenses).
• Construct a single logical view of the license system from which current summary license usage and
current detailed license usage reports can be generated.
• Generate detailed license event and license usage reports from logged server data.
The i4admin tool has a Graphical User Interface (GUI) and a Command Line Interface (CLI). If
i4admin is invoked with non-X arguments, the CLI version is started, otherwise the GUI version is
started.
A printable on-line administration guide is also available. (See the FILES section below.)
CLI Actions
The CLI is invoked with one of the following actions, and one or more action modifiers.
XToolKit Options
This command supports a subset of the standard X Toolkit options to control the appearance of the
GUI. See the X(1) manual page for a definition of these options.
-a Add a product license to a specified license server. There are two ways to add a license to a license
server.
If the license information has been provided in the form of a license certificate (a flat file describing
the license), the license certificate can be added by specifying the server-name and the license
certificate filename. If the server name is omitted, the license is added to the license server running
on the local machine.
If the license information has not been provided in a license certificate, the parameters must be
entered individually. All three vendor parameters are not always required. If the vendor for the pro-
duct is already installed on the server, only the vendor-name must be specified, otherwise the vendor-
name, vendor-id and vendor-password must be specified.
-d Delete a product license. To delete a compound password, or a use-once license, the license must have
expired. If the server name is omitted, the license is deleted from the license server running on the
local machine. The license timestamp must be specified to differentiate between licenses for the same
product (same Vendor ID, Product ID, and Product version), which are installed on the same server.
The license timestamp can be found using the list product details command:
i4admin -lp -i -p product-name
-l List installed license information. The command is qualified by the list type flag, s|v|p, to list
servers, vendors, or products respectively.
