Verifying the Current License Configuration
There are a number of ways that you can validate your current license configuration. Each of these is described in this section.
System Administration Reports
1. Log in to the Portal as a Super User.
2. Search for License Summary.
3. Generate the License Summary report.
Using this report, you can drill down to additional details about counted objects.
Help About
Log in to the Portal as a Super User and in the Portal toolbar, select:
Help > About
The license details are displayed.
Note: Users who do not have super-user privileges cannot view the license configuration details. They will see only the end-user license agreement terms.

Report Configuration Utility
Typically, you’ll run this report when requesting a license key file so that you can include the output in your emailed request. If you already have installed the Portal software, run the following command and include the output in the email.
Windows:
C:\opt\aptare\utils\reportconfig.bat > reportconfig.txt
Linux:
/opt/aptare/utils/reportConfig.sh > reportconfig.txt
Note: When you pipe the output to a file ( > reportconfig.txt), you’ll have an output file to email.

License Verification Utility
Typically, you’ll run this utility after you install the license key.
This utility connects to the database and then compares the counts and names of the licensed components with the values contained within the installed license key. For an evaluation license, the report will show the date/time that the license key will expire—that is, when the software will no longer function.
Log in as a user with super-user privileges and use the following utility to check the licensed components that are currently enabled in your environment.
Windows:
C:\opt\aptare\utils\verifyLicense.bat
Linux:
/opt/aptare/utils/verifyLicense.sh
The most important part of this report is the last section titled: VERIFYING LICENSE AGAINST CONFIGURATION. If this section is blank, there are no license violations and you have correctly installed the license and, in addition, the number of licensed components within the product matches the installed license key.
The LICENSE DETAILS portion of this report shows the specific capabilities that are associated with the license that was purchased for your environment.
