Manual License Configuration through SlmCmd Program

SlmCmd is the command line UI and can be used on all platforms that SLM supports. SLM keeps all license data in XML files. You can edit the XML files with any editor and use the Command Line UI to send the XML files to the SLM Cluster

The functionality of the command line interface includes options to:

• Save data files to the server.
• Retrieve data files from the server.
• Submit a new activation key.
• Retrieve server identification numbers.
• Monitor the license servers.
• Retrieve product license information.
• Add and remove desktops, users, and servers.

The interface consists of an executable file called SlmCmd, which is installed in the bin folder of your SLMHOME directory. You can use this executable file as a command, along with a number of arguments in a command window, such as the Command console or the Command prompt window. On UNIX, even a character-based shell suffices. The syntax and arguments of the command are described in other sections.

The procedure to modify the License file:

• Retrieve the initial license file from the SLM Server (Cluster).
• Include new data as add or change elements of the License file.
• Submit the new License file to the server and send the file to Infor Validation at: http://www.infor.com/inforxtreme
• Infor Validation returns a new activation key if the request matches with the contract records.
• Submit the new key to the server.
• Activation of the new key implements the license modifications.
