NAME
i4tv - verify that LicensePower/iFOR License Servers are working
SYNOPSIS
i4tv [ -n hostname | -z |
-v ][-h | -usage | -version ]
DESCRIPTION
The
i4tv tool can be used after the license servers have been started to verify that that they are running
properly. The
i4tv program resides in the /opt/ifor/ls/bin
directory. A message describing a
completed license transaction and a list of all license servers will be displayed. Once a license server has
been configured using
i4config, the
i4tv tool is used to quickly verify the status of the license server
i4lmd.
Options
-n hostname The -n option is used to check that the specified machine is running a license server. It
returns 0 if the hostname is running
i4lmd and it returns 1 if the hostname is not run-
ning
i4lmd.
-z The -z option turns on RPC tracing messages, which can be used to diagnose problems.
-v Displays progress messages during the license request operation.
-h Displays command usage information (same as -usage).
-usage Displays command usage information (same as -h).
-version Displays command version information.
If you can run i4tv successfully but are still having a problem with a licensed product, the problem is
probably with the licenses, or possibly with the product itself: in this case, talk to the vendor of the licensed
software product.
If you can not run i4tv successfully or it takes more than 10 seconds to retrieve a license, verify that
glbd and i4lmd are running. Use the utility lb_admin to clean the database. Answer YES to all data-
base entries that do not respond. If you receive one of the error messages listed below, use the explanation
of the error to fix the problem. Then try running i4tv again.
If you can not run i4tv successfully and receive an error that’s not listed below, it means there is a prob-
lem with the software on which LicensePower/iFOR ARK is layered (for example, TCP), or a hardware
problem.
A printable on-line administration guide is also available. (See the FILES section below.)

netls_no_svrs_found
