MLC`vrs`.MOD	Mainframe license check load library.
MLC`vrs`.JOBS	Mainframe license check example jobs.

License File

You must install a valid license file on all mainframe platforms in which your Software AG mainframe product is installed. Your individual product license is shipped on the installation tape. It can also be shipped by e-mail, if desired. License files have file names in the format "pppvr.xml", where ppp is the three-character product code of the Software AG product (for example, ADA for Adabas, NAT for Natural, or WCP for Entire Net-Work) and vr represent the major and minor version numbers (respectively) of the product.

Once the license file is received, you must use native FTP commands to transfer it to your mainframe host before using it during installation.

Warning:
Using utilities instead of native FTP commands for the license file transfer may corrupt the license key and thus prevent the later execution of your Software AG mainframe product. This applies, for example, to file transfer based on 3270 terminal emulations that do not provide a true binary file transfer, but convert specific characters.

The license file is provided as an XML document (encoding is US-ASCII). This document can be viewed using a browsing tool or text editor on a PC. It contains text, which represents the licensing information and a digital signature, the license key. Among other things, it displays Software AG legal notices and copyright information. The product license is comprised of environmental information.

Important:
Please note that the license file must remain in ASCII format -- even on the mainframe. It must not be modified. Any modification of the license file will invalidate the digital signature and the license check will fail. If the check fails, you will not be able to run the product. In the event of a check failure, please contact your Software AG technical support representative.

Transferring a License File from PC to a z/OS Host Using FTP

If a license file is supplied as an e-mail attachment, you must transfer the attached license file from the PC to the mainframe using native FTP commands.

To transfer a license file from the PC to a mainframe z/OS host, perform the following steps:

Save the product license file e-mail attachment on your PC's hard disk.
Open a command prompt window. In the command prompt window, change to the directory where you saved the license file.
Start an FTP session for communication with the z/OS host using the following FTP command:
```
ftp host-name
```
where host-name is the name of the z/OS host.
Enter your z/OS host login ID and password.
Once the FTP session has been established, you can optionally delete the default working prefix. To determine what the default working prefix is, enter the following command:
```
ftp>pwd
```
To delete the default working prefix, enter the following command:
```
ftp>cd ..
```
Specify the z/OS file system and data set prefix (for example, "ADABAS", "NATURAL", "NETWORK", or any other convenient prefix) for the license file. The following example sets the data set prefix to "ADABAS":
```
ftp>cd 'ADABAS'
```
Switch to binary data mode (the license file must retain its format as ASCII during the transfer):
```
ftp>binary
```
Specify that the data set for the license file must be written with RECFM=FB and LRECL=80.
```
ftp>quote site RECFM=FB LRECL=80 BLKSIZE=4000
```
RECFM=F is also supported for product license files.
Write the license as a data set on the z/OS system. For example, if the license file name is ada81.xml, you might enter:
```
ftp>put ada81.xml
```
This command will create a data set called "prefix.ADA81.XML", where prefix is the data set prefix you specified in Step 6. For example, if you requested a prefix of "ADABAS" in Step 6, the data set name would be "ADABAS.ADA81.XML". The data set will have RECFM=FB, LRECL=80, and the license information stored in the data set will be in ASCII format.
Stop your FTP session.
```
ftp>quit
```

Transferring a License File from PC to a z/VSE Host Using FTP

If a license file is supplied as an e-mail attachment, you must transfer the attached license file from the PC to the mainframe using native FTP commands.

The FTP sample session described in these steps loads the license file onto a member of a z/VSE library. It is possible to load the license file onto a sequential z/VSE data set (with RECFM=F or FB and LRECL=80) instead. For more information, refer to your FTP documentation.

To transfer a license file from the PC to a mainframe z/VSE host, perform the following steps:

Save the product license file e-mail attachment on your PC's hard disk.
Open a command prompt window. In the command prompt window, change to the directory where you saved the license file.
Start an FTP session for communication with the z/VSE host using the following FTP command:
```
ftp host-name
```
where host-name is the name of the z/VSE host.
Enter your z/VSE host login ID and password.
Once the FTP session has been established, you can optionally delete the default working prefix. To determine what the default working prefix is, enter the following command:
```
ftp>pwd
```
To delete the default working prefix, enter the following command:
```
ftp>cd ..
```
Point to the z/VSE library for the license file, (for example, "USERLIB"):
```
ftp>cd USERLIB
```
Point to the z/VSE sublibrary for the license file, (for example, "MYSUBLIB"):
```
ftp>cd MYSUBLIB
```
Switch to binary data mode (the license file must retain its format as ASCII during the transfer):
```
ftp>quote type I
```
Specify that the data set for the license file must be written with RECFM=FB and LRECL=80.
```
ftp>quote site recfm fb 80
```
RECFM=F is also supported for product license files.
Write the license as a member in the libraries on the z/VSE system you identified in Steps 6 and 7. For example, if the license file name is ada81.xml, you might enter:
```
ftp>put ada81.xml LICENSE.XML
```
This command will write the license file ada81.xml to a member called "LICENSE.XML". If you requested a library and sublibrary of "USERLIB" and "MYSUBLIB" in Steps 6 and 7, the LICENSE.XML file would reside in the USERLIB.MYSUBLIB library. The data set will have RECFM=FB, LRECL=80, and the license information stored in the member will be in ASCII format.
Stop your FTP session.
```
ftp>quit
```

Transferring a License File to a z/VM Host

If a license file is supplied as an e-mail attachment or on tape, you must transfer it to the mainframe. This section describes how to transfer the license file from tape and from e-mail (using FTP).

Note:
Software AG licensing software is not provided for VM/GCS environments.

To transfer the product license file from tape to a source library, complete the following steps:

Refer to the Report of Tape Creation to accurately locate the license file on the tape.
If the tape is positioned somewhere other than the beginning of the tape, rewind it:
```
TAPE REW
```
Position the tape to the license file location, as shown in the Report of Tape Creation. For example, if the sequence number of ADAvrZVM file, as shown by the Report of Tape Creation, is n, you must position over 3 n - 2 tape marks (that is, FSF 1 for the first data set, FSF 4 for the second, etc.).
Run the following z/VM commands in sequence to transfer the file off of the tape.
```
FILEDEF IN TAP1 (RECFM FB LRECL 80 BLKSIZE 3120
FILEDEF OUT DISK fn ft A (RECFM F LRECL 80 BLKSIZE 80
MOVEFILE IN OUT
```
where fn is the file name of the license file and ft is the file type of the license file.

To transfer the product license file e-mail attachment from Windows to a z/VM host, complete the following steps (make sure to switch to binary transfer and verify that the resulting data set has RECFM=F or FB and LRECL=80):

Save the product license file e-mail attachment on your PC's hard disk.
Open a command prompt window. In the command prompt window, change to the directory where you saved the license file.
```
cd dir
```
Start an FTP session with the z/VM host:
```
ftp host-name
```
where host-name is the name of the z/VM host.
Enter your FTP logon userid and password, as appropriate.
Switch the FTP data mode to binary:
```
binary
```
Request that the license data set to be written has RECFM=FB and LRECL=80:
```
quote site fix 80
```
Write the license file to the z/VM host. For example:
```
put fn.ft
```
where fn is the file name of the license file and ft is the file type of the license file.

The license file is written to your VM host.
Stop your FTP session:
```
quit
```

Transferring a License File from PC to a BS2000 Host Using FTP

If a license file is supplied as an e-mail attachment, you must transfer the attached license file from the PC to the mainframe using native FTP commands.

To transfer a license file from the PC to a BS2000 host, perform the following steps:

Make sure to switch to binary transfer and verify that the resulting data set has file type SAM.

Save the product license file e-mail attachment on your PC's hard disk.
Open a command prompt window. In the command prompt window, change to the directory where you saved the license file.
```
cd dir
```
Start an FTP session for communication with the BS2000 host using the following FTP command:
```
ftp host-name
```
where host-name is the name of the BS2000 host.
Enter your FTP login ID and password.
Switch the FTP data mode to binary:
```
binary
```
Request that the license data set has a file type of SAM:
```
quote file *,fcbtype=sam 
```
Write the license file to the BS2000 host. For example, to write the ada81.xml license file, you would enter:
```
put ada81.xml
```
The license file is written to your BS2000 host.
Stop your FTP session:
```
quit
```

License File Installation

During the mainframe product installation process, the license file is loaded and processed as required by your Software AG mainframe product. Refer to the appropriate installation procedure for your Software AG mainframe product for further information.

Product License Check FAQs

Why has Software AG introduced a license check for products on the mainframe?
Software AG wants to ensure that customers run our software products only on mainframe machines for which they have valid and sufficient product license. This ensures that we have better control of the use of our software products. On other platforms (UNIX, Windows), the product licensing has been established for many years.

What information is contained in a product license?
A product license is a sequential file with US-ASCII text in XML format containing the following items:

Software AG header
customer information (Name, ID)
encrypted license key
license expiration date (or unlimited)
product information (product code, version, name)
environment information (operating system type, CPU ID, system name, capacity)

Warning:
Any modification of the license file will invalidate the digital signature and the license key check will fail. If the check fails, you will not be able to run the product. In the event of a check failure, please contact your Software AG technical support representative.

What exactly is meant by the CPU ID?
IBM defines the CPU ID as the "central processing complex node descriptor sequence number". It is the unique hexadecimal machine serial number without the machine model number.

z/OS

On z/OS systems, information about the CPU can be displayed on the operator console by entering the command:
```
D M=CPU
```
For example, suppose the console output from this command contains these lines:
```
EE174I 16.38.50 DISPLAY M 951
PROCESSOR STATUS
ID  CPU                  SERIAL
00  +                     0FA10E2096
01  +                     0FA10E2096
CPC ND = 002096.S07.IBM.83.00000007A10E
CPC SI = 2096.V03.IBM.83.000000000007A10E
....
```
In this example, the CPU ID is "7A10E", as highlighted in the example above.

z/VSE

On z/VSE systems, information about the CPU can be displayed on the operator console by entering the operator command:
```
sir
```
For example, suppose the output from this command contains this line:
```
...   
AR 0015 PROCESSOR = IBM 2096-V03 83 (7A10E83)  LPAR = DAEX      No. = 0007
....
```
The CPU ID is highlighted in the example.

BS2000

On BS2000/OSD systems, the CPU ID (8-byte hexadecimal) consists of the machine serial number, the processor ID and the machine model number. The processor ID in the second byte of the CPU ID is ignored for the license check. Information about the CPU can be displayed by entering the following BS2000/OSD command:
```
/SHOW-SYSTEM-INFORMATION INFORMATION=*CPU-ID-LIST
```
For example, suppose the output from this command contains these lines:
```
...                                           
%CONFIGURATION              = 7.500- S140-20A      «                        
%CPU-ID-LIST :  ADR   0     = 1D02301375000000 «                            
...
```
The most relevant information is shown in these lines. The first value identifies the machine type as "7.500- S140-20A", the second value identifies the physical CPU ID as "1D02301375" (trailing zeros can be omitted).

z/VM

On z/VM systems, the CPU ID can be determined entering the command:
```
q cpu
```
Suppose the output from this command is:
```
CPUID = FF07A10E20968000
```
The first byte will always be "FF", followed by the CPU-ID (highlighted in the example).
Which mainframe products use the Software AG common mainframe license routines?
- Adabas (version 8.1.4 or later)
- Com-plete (planned)
- Entire Net-Work (version 6.2.1 or later)
- Entire System Services (planned)
- Natural (planned)
- webMethods EntireX (planned)
How is the product license file installed?
The product license file is supplied on the individual customer installation tape or separately via an e-mail attachment. For information on its installation, refer to the installation documentation for your product. For information on transferring the license file from a PC to a z/OS, z/VSE, z/VM, or BS2000 host, read the various Transferring a License File from PC to a xxx Host sections .

In addition, steps for actually installing the license file are provided in the installation steps of your software product.
How can I read the product license file?
- The product license file can be read on a PC using an XML editor (file type .xml) or any PC-based text editor.
- The license utility, LICUTIL, provided with the Software AG mainframe license check software includes a function that allows you to display the license (Display License function). For more information about the license utility, read The License Utility: LICUTIL.
- When Natural is installed and runs, the license information can be displayed using function "L" of the Natural SYSTP utility.
- When Adabas, Com-plete, Entire Net-Work, Entire System Services, and webMethods EntireX are installed and run, they print a formatted license file into their logging files.
How can I display machine-specific data?
Use the license utility, LICUTIL, to display machine-specific data. For more information about the license utility, read The License Utility: LICUTIL.
When is the product license checked?
The product license is checked during every time the product is initialized. In addition, the product license is checked once a day.

Thirty days before the license expires, license check failure messages are produced. Your software product will still function, but these messages warn you that it is time to obtain a new license.

Which items of a product license are checked?
Product license items are divided into three logical license groups (License Key, Product-Specific Information, and Machine-Specific Information) and checked in that order. If an inconsistency in any one of these groups is detected by the license checker, the succeeding items of that logical license group are also checked. Then the check terminates with corresponding error messages. For example, if the license key expires, the license key check terminates with an error before the license checker checks any product-specific or machine-specific information.

The following table identifies the product license items comprising each logical group:

Checking Order	Logical License Group Name	Product License Items Included
1	License Key	The encrypted license key
2	Product-Specific Information	The expiration date (if any) The operating system (z/OS, z/VSE, z/VM, or BS2000/OSD) The product code (for example, ADA, COm, EXX, NAT, or WCP) The product version, in either "`v.r`" or "`v.r.s`" format. For further information on product versions, refer to the description of "`v.r`" or "`v.r.s`" in the product documentation Glossary.
3	Machine-Specific Information	The machine CPU ID The machine capacity (only in z/OS, z/VSE, and z/VM environments) The logical partition

Does the Software AG mainframe license checker software support a disaster recovery scenario?
Yes. Please contact your Software AG sales representative to obtain a license file which is able to support disaster recovery scenarios. The parameter DisasterRecoveryCPUIDs in this license file allows you to specify one or more CPU IDs of the machines to be used when your production machine fails. If you do not have these CPU IDs available, it is possible to specify the value "Unknown". In this case, the license checker issues a warning message when a disaster recovery scenario is assumed.

In a disaster recover scenario, no machine data besides the CPU ID is checked.
What happens if the product license expires or is incorrect, insufficient, or not installed?
The reaction varies by Software AG mainframe product. For more information, refer to the documentation for the product.

Thirty days before the license expires, license check failure messages are produced. Your software product will still function, but these messages warn you that it is time to obtain a new license.
How can I get a new product license file if the delivered license file is insufficient for my environment?
Contact your Software AG sales representative to get a correct product license file according to your contract. It can be sent by e-mail either in ASCII format or in the converted assembler input format.
Do I need separate product licenses for different machines?
No, it is possible to have multiple CPU IDs defined in one license file.

Using The License Utility: LICUTIL

The license utility, LICUTIL, is a utility provided with Software AG's mainframe license checking software. It can perform the following functions:

Check the license file. LICUTIL is mainly intended to be used to check the license file during the installation of the product. The original license file must be provided as input along with the product code and version. If the license file is not valid, appropriate error messages are returned.
Display the license file and machine data. LICUTIL is able to display the contents of the license file and machine data, such as the CPU ID, LPAR, or MSU information.
Convert the license file into an assembler source module. LICUTIL can be used to convert the license file into an assembler source module that can then be used to assemble and link a license module. For more information about using license key modules, refer to the documentation provided with your Software AG product.

The following table briefly describes the functions and parameters in the license utility. More detailed information of each function is provided later in this section:

Function	Parameters	Description
