Installing a Purchased license

First transfer the Sm_lic.zip file to the sesam server

Linux:

  1. sudo sh -c "unzip -L Sm_lic.zip;cp -bv sm_lic.ini /var/opt/sesam/var/ini"
    • If the above command fails you can locate your license file with:
    • find /opt/sesam/ /var/opt/sesam 2>/dev/null|egrep -v skel|egrep 'sm_lic.ini$'
  2. Wait 5 minutes for the service to detect the license
  3. /etc/init.d/sesam restart

Windows as Administrator:

  1. unzip sm_lic.zip
  2. copy the sm_lic.ini file to c:\Program Files\SEPSesam\ini\sm_lic.ini (keep the original file as a backup)
  3. Wait 5 minutes for the service to detect the license
  4. restart the sesam service or the computer

You can use the sesam gui HELP>LICENSE to verify that the new license is detected and working
