NAME
i4tv - Verify that LicensePower/iFOR License Servers are working
SYNOPSIS
i4tv [ -n hostname | -z | -v ]
[ -h | -usage | -version ]
DESCRIPTION
The i4tv tool can be used after the license servers have
been started to verify that that they are running properly.
The i4tv program resides in the /opt/ifor/ls/bin directory.
A message describing a completed license transaction and a list
of all license servers will be displayed.
Once a license server has been configured using i4config the
i4tv tool is used to quickly verify the status of the license
server i4lmd.
OPTIONS
- -n hostname
-
The -n option is used to check that
the specified machine is running a license server.
It returns 0 if the hostname is running i4lmd and it returns
1 if the hostname is not running i4lmd.
- -z
-
The -z option turns on RPC tracing messages,
which can be used to diagnose problems.
- -v
-
Displays progress messages during the license request operation.
- -h
-
Displays command usage information (same as -usage)
- -usage
-
Displays command usage information (same as -h)
- -version
-
Displays command version information.
If you can run i4tv successfully but are
still having a problem with a licensed product, the problem is probably
with the licenses, or possibly with the product itself: in this case,
talk to the vendor of the licensed software product.
If you can't run i4tv successfully or it takes more than 10 seconds
to retrieve a license, verify that llbd, glbd and i4lmd are all running. Use the utilities lb_admin to clean the database.
Answer YES to all database entries that do not respond. If you receive
one of the error messages listed below, use the explanation of the error
to fix the problem. Then try running i4tv again.
If you can't run i4tv successfully and
receive an error that's not listed below, it means there is a problem
with the software on which LicensePower/iFOR ARK is layered (for example, TCP or
NCS), or a hardware problem.
ERROR MESSAGES
