12 Application Gateway Administration Guide
You must renew software maintenance to continue to be eligible to install
new releases of software.
When managing licenses, be aware of the following:
A license is specific to the Application Gateway for which it was
•
issued.
We recommend that you retain a local copy of all license files. If you
•
need to reinstall the Application Gateway server software, you will
need to upload all license files to it.
Do not overwrite any files in your local license directory. If another file
•
in that directory has the same name, you should rename the newly
received file. The Application Gateway software calculates your
licensed features based on all license files that are uploaded to the
Application Gateway.
If you edit a license file, the Application Gateway software will ignore
•
any features associated with that license.
The contents of license files are encrypted and must remain intact.
•
Should you copy, rename, or insert a license file multiple times, the
Application Gateway will use only the original file and will ignore any
duplicate files.
To obtain license files, you will need to know the host ID of the
Application Gateway which you are licensing.
To view the host ID:
In the Administration Tool, go to the Administration > Licenses page.
•
To upload license files to the Application Gateway:
In the Administration Tool, go to the Administration > Licenses page.
Across from Upload License File, click Browse and locate the license file
that you want to upload.
Click Open and then click Upload.
