Sun WorkShop Quick Install

Starting lit

This section describes how to start the lit GUI.


Note -

You must run lit on your license server.


If workshop_install Is Running

If your application server and your license server are different machines, run lit on your license server by following the instructions in "If workshop_install Is Not Running".

If your application server and your license server are the same machine and the WorkShop Install window is open, follow these steps:

  1. Click Install Licenses in the WorkShop Install window.

    The License Installation Tool window opens (see Figure 4-1).

  2. Skip to "Using lit".

If workshop_install Is Not Running

If your application server and your license server are different machines, run lit on your license server (not your application server).

Follow these steps:

  1. Enable client access by typing the following at a command line on your license server:

    % /usr/openwin/bin/xhost + hostname

    Replace hostname with the output of the /usr/bin/hostname command run on your license server.

  2. Become a superuser (root) by typing:

    % su

    Password: root-password

  3. Set your display.

    If you use a C shell, type:

    # setenv DISPLAY hostname:0

    If you use a Bourne shell, type:

    # DISPLAY=hostname:0

    # export DISPLAY

    If you use a Korn shell, type:

    # export DISPLAY=hostname:0

    Replace hostname with the output of the /usr/bin/hostname command.

  4. Start the License Installation Tool by typing:

    # /etc/opt/licenses/lit &

    The License Installation Tool window opens (Figure 4-1).

  5. Proceed to "Using lit".
