Before users can use licensed products, you need to install the license keys for those products. Each license key unlocks a licensed product, enabling the product to be used.
Installing a license key is a separate procedure from installing the licensed product. This enables you to add more license keys at any time, without reinstalling the licensed product.
To install a license key using the menu interface of the License Administration Services:
- Go to the License Administration Services Main menu.
- Press F2=key and enter the license key, which comprises the serial number and license number printed on the License Key Card, entitled Important Product Information.
- Press enter to accept the license key you just entered. Details of the product and license key type are displayed.
- Press F3=install to add these details into the license database.
- Press F7=refresh to activate your license so that you can run the product.

You can also refresh the license database by entering the command:

at the command line. You must be in the directory where License Management Facility is installed, /opt/microfocus/mflmf.
