Managing Licenses 158
2. Make sure that the destination server is up and connected to the Internet.
3. Log in to the destination server (e.g. via ssh).
4. Execute the following command on the destination server:
# vzlicupdate -t -a XXXXXX-XXXXXX-XXXXXX-XXXXXX-XXXXXX
When executed, vzlicupdate sends the activation code to the Parallels KA server, thus
informing the server of its intention to transfer the license to a new Parallels server. The KA
server verifies the received code, generates a new license file, sends it back to the
destination server, and installs it there.
You can check that the license transferal has completed successfully using the vzlicview
utility. For example:
# vzlicview
Show installed licenses...
VZSRV
status="ACTIVE"
version=4.0
serial="XXXXXX-XXXXXX-XXXXXX-XXXXXX-XXXXXX"
expiration="05/01/2009 23:59:59"
...
Detailed information on the vzlicview utility and its output is provided in Viewing Current
License (p. 158).
