...

  1. Run "hasp_srm_view" utility on the "RecipientHost" with the following parameters to collect the host ID info:

    $ hasp_srm_view -idf

    The "recipient.id" file will be created in the current directory.
     

  2. Copy the "recipient.id" file to the "SourceHost".

    Info

    "recipient.id" is an ASCII file, so use the "ascii" option for FTP transfer.

           

  3. On the "SourceHost", open the "Sentinel Admin Control Center" (ACC) ( http://localhost:1947). Note the number of the software license you are going to transfer.
     

  4. Run the "hasp_srm_view" utility in the following way to create a transfer license for the host "RecipientHost":

    $ hasp_srm_view -tfr <license number> recipient.id

    The "license number" is the value collected at the step 3.

    Example of collecting a transfer license:

    $ hasp_srm_view -tfr 12345678 recipient.id

    A "<license number>.v2c" file will be created in the current directory. In the example above, the name of the transfer license will be "12345678.v2c"
     

  5. Copy the resulting "<license number>.v2c" file to the "RecipientHost".

    Info

    "<license number>.v2c" is an ASCII file, so use the "ascii" option for FTP transfer.

          

  6. On the "RecipientHost", open "Sentinel Admin Control Center" (ACC) (http://localhost:1947) and apply the "<license number>.v2c" file as  described above.
