How do I update the NFM-P license in a standalone deployment?

Steps
 

Log in to the main server station as the nsp user.


Open a console window.


Navigate to the /opt/nsp/nfmp/server/nms/bin directory.


Enter the following:

bash$ ./nmsserver.bash import_license license_file

where license_file is the absolute file path of the NFM-P license zip file

The following prompt is displayed:

Detected an NFM-P license key. Do you want to proceed? (YES/no): 


Enter the following:

YES ↵

The main server reads the license file, copies the license file to a backup location, and displays the following status information:

Importing NFM-P license key...

Original license key file has been backed up to /opt/nsp/nfmp/server/timestamp/SAMLicense.zip

Done.

where timestamp is a directory name in the following format: yyyy.mm.dd-hh.mm.ss


Close the console window.


Restart auxiliary servers
 

In order to apply the license values to an NFM-P auxiliary server, you must restart the auxiliary server.

If the NFM-P deployment includes one or more auxiliary servers, restart each auxiliary server station.

  1. Log in to the auxiliary server station as the nsp user.

  2. Open a console window.

  3. Enter the following:

    bash$ cd /opt/nsp/nfmp/auxserver/nms/bin ↵

  4. Enter the following:

    bash$ ./auxnmsserver.bash auxforce_restart ↵

    The auxiliary server restarts.

  5. Close the console window.
