To Delete a COD License
Before deleting a license, the COD software determines whether sufficient licenses
are available from the pool of installed licenses plus headroom. If all licenses are in
use and no headroom is available, the operation will fail. You can force the operation
by using the
-f
option in
, but doing so will overcommit any license
reservations that might be in effect.
1. Log
in to the XSCF
console with
platadm
privileges.
2. Verify that you have enough licenses or headroom to cover COD resources
currently in use.
Use the
showcodlicense
command, as described in
If you do not have sufficient licenses or headroom to
compensate, power off one or more domains or disconnect the appropriate
number of boards.
3.
Type the
deletecodlicense
command:
where
license-signature
is the complete COD license key assigned by the Sun License
Center.
4. Verify that the license key was removed from the license database by typing
the
showcodlicense -r
command.
The COD RTU license key that you deleted should not be listed in the
showcodlicense
output. See
“To Display COD License Status” on page 13
