Parameter license_key_id 

Optional parameter. There can be several license_key_id parameters in this section. They define a prioritized list of license keys. The first entry has the highest priority. If no key with this ID is available, the next key in the list will be tried. If a higher priority key becomes available, the emulator will switch to this license at the next periodic license check.

Syntax:

license_key_id "key-id-prio1"

Optional parameter. There can be several license_id parameters in this section. They define a prioritized list of product license IDs. The first entry has the highest priority. If no key with this product license ID is available, the next product license ID in the list will be attempted. If a higher priority license becomes available, the emulator will switch to this license at the next periodic license check.

Every Charon-PAR emulated model has preconfigured SCSI controllers that can be used to configure emulated disks for the guest system. All models also have the option to load additional controllers. Please refer to the section I/O Slot Configuration in this chapter.

Please note:

  • The description below shows how to work with preloaded SCSI controllers. Once an additional SCSI controller has been loaded, the steps below also apply to such a controller.
  • It is not recommended to place emulator storage devices (in particular vdisks) on NFS as this will have a significant impact on performance. However, if any of the storage (e.g., ISO files or vdisks) is on an NFS share, NFS locking must be enabled and all intermediate firewalls between client and server must allow the port used by the lockd and statd. Failure to do so will cause the emulator to hang at startup.
