Installing Domain-Based Licenses

The current implementation of domain-based licenses does not require a separate license server, so it is not necessary to run a license server to use the GoldPass and ScholarPASS configured licenses.

Follow these steps to install your software and your licenses:

1. Install your Sun WorkShop development tools by following the instructions in Chapter 3, Installing Software.

   There is no need for you to install FLEXlm 6.1 license manager software.

2. Check your directories to see if you have the following directory:

   install-directory/SUNWspro/license_dir

   The default install-directory is /opt.

3. Create a text file containing the license information you received from the Sun License Center.

   • If you received an email attachment, copy only the email attachment into the text file.

   • If you received an email with the license information embedded in the email message, copy only the license information into the text file (do not include the mail headers and the body of the email message).

   • If you received your license information by fax, input the license information into the text file.

4. Save the text file in the following location with the following file name:

   • For GoldPass: install-directory/SUNWspro/license_dir/sunpro.lic,gp

   • For ScholarPASS: install-directory/SUNWspro/license_dir/sunpro.lic,sp

     Note -

     Make sure your file name contains both a period (.) and a comma (,).

     ---

     For the sunpro.lic text file you just saved, root should be the owner and have read and write permission; all others should have read-only access.

     You can append the contents of this new file to an existing domain-based password file or create additional files with an incremental name (for example, sunpro.lic,sp1 or sunpro.lic,sp2).

     ---

     Note -

     The number of licenses available is zero (unlimited) for a domain-based license.

     ---

You can now use your licensed software.
