vFabric Suite Licensing 21

prompt> vfabric-licensetool.bat checkserial [options] serial-number
You can specify the following options:
• -f input-filename : Read the license key from a text file called input-filename rather than from the
command line.
• -o output-filename : Print results to a file called output-filename rather than to the standard output.
• -? : Print usage information.
For example, to view information about the validity of a license key (123AA-123BB-123CC-123DD-123EE in the example)
and write the output to a file called validity-output.txt, run the following (Linux):
prompt$ cd /opt/vfabric/utils/vfabric-vfchksn-1.0.1
prompt$ vfabric-licensetool checkserial -o validity-output.txt 123AA-123BB-123CC-123DD-123EE
In the preceding example, it is implied that you unzipped the ZIP file into the /opt/vfabric/utils directory.
The validity-output.txt file contains information similar to the following:
123AA-123BB-123CC-123DD-123EE:
vFabric 5.1 License.
