GET.LICENCE.UPDATE

The GET.LICENCE.UPDATE command (or the US spelling GET.LICENSE.UPDATE) checks for licence updates.

Format

GET.LICENCE.UPDATE

The GET.LICENCE.UPDATE command makes a network connection to the QM licensing server to check for an updated licence. This might be as a result of changes to the user limit, expiry date or optional features or it might be as a result of renewing the maintenance agreement.

If a licence update is available, it is automatically applied to the qmconfig file in the QMSYS account.

It is also possible to automate this process by setting the AUTOLIC configuration parameter to a non-zero value. When this option is enabled, QM will check for updates a few seconds after starting the QMSvc service or qmlnxd process and then again at intervals of the AUTOLIC value days.

Note for security auditing purposes that no application data is transmitted by this command.
