Dear managers:
We have an old 1994-1995 DEC Alpha 3000. The internal disk drive
crashed a few days ago.
I re-installed OSF 4.0f onto external drive 12 with no problem. Then
I tried to install the license which I have done numerous times on
other Alphas.
I used the GUI, I used the lmf facilities, and a shell script.
Problem: Not enough units.
Here is the shell script:
-----------------------------------------------
if `whoami` != "root" then
echo "You must be superuser to run this script"
exit 1
endif
test -r /etc/lmf
if ($status != 0) then
set lmfcom="/usr/sbin/lmf"
else
set lmfcom="/etc/lmf"
endif
echo ""
echo "Unloading and deleting OSF-BASE"
$lmfcom delete OSF-BASE
echo ""
echo "Registering OSF-BASE"
$lmfcom register - << =EOF=
Licensed Software Product
Product Authorization Key
Enter data on lines terminated with :
Issuer: DEC
Authorization Number: ALS-WM-95010-200
Product Name: OSF-BASE
Producer: DEC
Number of units: 12
Availability Table Code: A
Key Options: MOD_UNITS,ALPHA
Checksum: (Removed intentionally but matches license)
=EOF=
if $status then
echo "Registration Failed for OSF-BASE "
exit 1
endif
echo ""
echo "Loading OSF-BASE"
$lmfcom load 12 OSF-BASE DEC ALS-WM-95010-200
----------------------------------------------------
I don't think I should have problem with spaces after the : .
Thanks!!
