4.2 Adding a License Key

You must add licenses for both the Change Guardian server and applications or modules you plan to monitor.

If you are using the evaluation license key, you must add the enterprise license key before the evaluation key expires to avoid any interruption in the Change Guardian functionality. For information about how to purchase the license, see the Change Guardian Product Web site.

4.2.1 Adding the License Key for Server

You can either use the Administration Console or the command-line to add the Change Guardian server license key.

Adding from the Administration Console

To add a license key using the Administration Console:

  1. In the Administration Console, click About > Licenses.

  2. In the Licenses section, click Add License.

  3. Specify the license key in Key.

    NOTE:After a license expires, you can add the license key by using only the command line.

  4. Click Save.

Adding from the Command Line

To add a license key using the command line:

  1. Log in to the Change Guardian server as root.

  2. Change to the /opt/novell/sentinel/bin directory.

  3. Change to the novell user:

    su novell

  4. Run the softwarekey.sh script:

    ./softwarekey.sh
  5. Enter 1 to insert the license key.

  6. Specify the license key, then press Enter.

4.2.2 Adding License for Applications

Module Manager provides you information about licensed applications and allows you to import application licenses to Policy Editor.

When you install Change Guardian, all available applications are installed automatically on Policy Editor. However, you must add a new application to Policy Editor. To allow Change Guardian to start monitoring, import the license key for each application.

To add a new application to Module Manager:

  1. In Module Manager, click Install > From Local Directory.

To import a license:

  1. Log in to Policy Editor, click Change Guardian.

  2. Select Module Manager.

  3. Click Import License Key.

  4. Select the license key for the required application.
