HP Eloquence license scheme
In order to use the HP Eloquence software, you need to provide a license key on each system where you intend to run HP Eloquence server software on. With HP Eloquence A.06.00 it is not required to install a license key on each system running HP Eloquence unless you intend to run HP Eloquence server software.
When you install HP Eloquence on a system for the first time, a temporary license key is generated which will expire after 30 days.
If HP Eloquence A.05.02 or above is already installed on your system, no temporary license key is generated, because you installed HP Eloquence before. However, you can simply re-use your license key from your current installation. Simply copy the license file from /opt/eloquence/licence to /opt/eloquence6/license (please note the different spelling of licence vs. license).
In order to request your permanent license key, plase fill out the "Permanent License Request" form included with the software and send it to the address below:
- Fax
- +49 202 2431420
- Mail
- Marxmeier Software GmbH
Attn. HP Eloquence Support
Suedstrasse 58
D-42119 Wuppertal
Germany
After you received your permanent license key, you must add it to your license file in order to activate it. The location of the HP Eloquence license file depends on operating system revision:
- HP-UX 10.x
- /etc/opt/eloquence6/license
- HP-UX 9.x
- /opt/eloquence6/etc/license
- Windows NT
- The file license is located in the etc subdirectory of the HP Eloquence installation path.
- Linux
- /etc/opt/eloquence6/license
The license file is a plain text file which contains all licences which apply to the HP Eloquence product. The utility /opt/eloquence6/etc/chklic may be used to check the licence file.
