Creating or Editing the Redundant License File

To create a new redundant license file or to edit an existing one follow the steps below:

  1. Start the WlmAdmin utility.
  2. Go to the Edit menu and select the Redundant License File command.
    This calls the WRlfTool utility. We suggest you to read through WRlfTool for details on creating or editing the redundant license file.

Note: If you are editing an existing redundant license file, to avoid synchronization problems because someone else is adding licenses in the redundant license file while you have it open, we recommend you make a copy of the file under another name, make your changes, and then rename it back to its original name when you are done. For best performance we recommend you edit the redundant license file on the leader license server.

Also note that the changes you make to the redundant license file will not take effect until you copy the changed file to a redundant license server in the pool (or edit it directly on the license server using the precautions discussed above) and then restart that server.
