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>]

--show       Shows the installed license.
--verbose    Shows more information.
--validate   Validates the license file.

--file       License file path.
