CAUTION Service Disruption |
Modifying the nms-server.xml file can have serious consequences that can include service disruption.
Contact technical support before you attempt to modify the nms-server.xml file.
Note: You must perform the procedure on each main server in the NFM-P system.
Note: In a redundant system, you must perform the procedure on the standby main server station first.
Steps

Log in to the main server station as the nsp user. |
2 |
Open a console window. |
3 |
Navigate to the /opt/nsp/nfmp/server/nms/config directory. |

Open the nms-server.xml file using a plain-text editor such as vi. |
6 |
Locate the following tag in the nms-server.xml file: <license |
7 |
Edit the following line in the section to read: timedLicenseExpiryCount="value" where value is the number of days to be notified before the license expiry |
8 |
Save and close the nms-server.xml file. |

On a standalone main server, or the primary main server in a redundant system, enter the following: bash$ /opt/nsp/nfmp/server/nms/bin/nmsserver.bash read_config ↵ The NFM-P puts the configuration change into effect. |
