Description
QoreStor installs with a 1 TB trial license. If you have purchased a perpetual license, you can install it using the system --license command, as described below.
When you have downloaded your license file, you will need to copy it to the QoreStor server before installing the license. In the examples below <path> is used to represent the directory that contains the license file.
Syntax
system --license [--show] [--verbose] [--validate] [--file <path>] [--add] [--file <path>]
Where
--show Shows the installed license.
--verbose Shows more information.
--validate Validates the license file.
--add Installs the license file.
--file License file path.
Result
License file is valid and can be installed.
To add a validated license for a QoreStor server, use the following QoreStor CLI command:
system --license --add --file <path>
License file has successfully installed.
Description
