How to install demo licenses

As a reminder, these products are no longer supported by Sun Microsystems, with the exception of Forte Developer 6 update 2 software.

Please do not try to install demo licenses with a FLEXlm license manager tool, i.e: lit, lit_tty and do not add the demo licenses to the /etc/opt/licenses/licenses_combined file

The following steps will help you install the demo license:

• Copy the demo license lines into a readable text file.
• Remove all meta keys such as ^M, line break and \ from this text file if any. Each license line should be represented in one physical line and should not be split up. The license lines should begin with INCREMENT and end with "DEMO" token. Please do not add SERVER or DAEMON lines into this text file.
• Name the text file "sunpro.lic,<id>" with <id> being a unique identifier for the file within the directory. For example: sunpro.lic,node or sunpro.lic,demo or sunpro.lic,demo1.
• Put the file in directory /<basedir>/SUNWspro/license_dir with <basedir> being the base directory of the appropriate Workshop or Forte Developer product. i.e:
  /opt/SUNWspro/license_dir/sunpro.lic,demo
/workshop5/SUNWspro/license_dir/sunpro.lic,demo
/forte6/SUNWspro/license_dir/sunpro.lic,demo
