License Maintenance
ITO uses the OVKey license mechanism for the installation and
maintenance of the product licenses. The OVKey license technology is
based on node-locked licenses with license passwords in a license file -
not on a central license server. One clear and significant advantage of
this approach is that it is not necessary to set up a license server which
handles the licenses. In addition, the product may be used even behind
firewalls and in Service Guard environments. ITO provides a command
-line tool, opclic, to maintain the licenses. For more information on the
command-line interface, opclic,, see "ITO License Maintenance Tools"
on page 478.
After installation, the ITO administrator replaces the Instant-On
licence with the correct license. The licence maintenance tool opclic
ensures that the license file does not contain more than one server
license.
License Types
License types relate very strictly to the ITO product structure. Each
sub-product or licensable feature has its own license type and product
number. However, not all licenses will be required for ITO to run. In
some cases a message in the Message Browser window informs the
customer when no license is available, or a license has expired. For more
detailed information on the types of licenses available in ITO, see Table
10-16 on page 478.
