  • <source disk file name> - a file name of the disk image to be transferred

  • <source disk parameters> - the name of the disk from the list of available on "mkdskcmd --list" request or the disk geometry specification (see below).

  • --shrink or -k - used in the case when the target disk is transferred to a smaller disk.

Example:

$ mkdskcmd --transfer /etc/rz22.vdisk rz25

It is also possible to specify the disk parameters manually with "--blcount / -c" (blocks count) and "--blsize / -z" (blocks size) switches:

$ mkdskcmd --transfer <source disk file name> -blsize <number> -blcount <number>

Example:

$ mkdskcmd -t /etc/custom.vdisk -z 512 -c 262134

...

$ mtd <tape container name> <tape device name>

Example:

$ mtd /charon/tapes/tape1.vtape /dev/st5

  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.

  1. Open "Sentinel Admin Control Center" (ACC) (http://localhost:1947). Note the number of the software license you are going to remove.
     

  2. Run the "hasp_srm_view" utility in the following way to remove the license:

    $ hasp_srm_view -tfr <license number>

    The "license number" is the value collected at the step 1.

    Example:

    $ hasp_srm_view -tfr 12345678

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

  3. It is always possible to re-apply the created ".v2c" file to restore the deleted software license.
