   Installing the BEA Tuxedo System

Installing Your Product License

Your product license was delivered on the floppy diskette that you received in the box with the software CD-ROM.

Note: License files from previous BEA Tuxedo releases are not valid for BEA Tuxedo Release 7.1. You need to create a new license file for BEA Tuxedo Release 7.1. If you later license additional BEA Tuxedo Security capabilities or BEA Jolt, you can append those license files to the BEA Tuxedo Release 7.1 license file.

The floppy diskette cannot be read on a computer running the UNIX system. To install the license, complete the following 2-step procedure.

  1. Install the contents of the floppy diskette onto a Windows machine and transfer the license file to the UNIX machine.

  2. Copy your BEA Tuxedo license file to the directory in which the lic.txt file resides: $TUXDIR/udataobj. To verify that the UNIX system has accepted the file, run the tmadmin -v command.

    A sample license file is shown in the following listing.

    BEA Tuxedo System License File
    This file contains license tokens to enable BEA Tuxedo and optional components. Each license begins with "[section name]" and ends with a "SIGNATURE=" line. New license sections should be appended to this file, and the old section, if present,
    should be deleted.

    WARNING: Altering parameters within a section will invalidate the license. This is a violation of the BEA Systems licensing agreement, and may also disable Tuxedo or optional components.
