Task 8: Installing the License Key File (Linux)
1. Receive the License File
APTARE recommends deleting all prior Portal license key files from the system before you install the new license key, as this new license key replaces all other license keys.
Save the new license file on your Portal server and then complete all of the following steps.
2. Ensure that the Oracle Processes are Running
Log in as root on your IT Analytics Database server (the Database and Portal servers are usually the same physical server).
/opt/aptare/bin/oracle start
3. Run the Installation Script
Log in as root on your IT Analytics Portal server.
Run the installation script:
/opt/aptare/utils/installLicense.sh
When prompted for the name of the license file, enter the complete path to the license key file you saved on your server. Overwrite an existing license if you are prompted to do so.
Sample:
Enter the name of the license file you wish to install [portal.license] : /opt/aptare/mycompany.license
