Unloads a license, making the product unavailable from the current node. The product license or licenses must be registered in the License Database and must have been previously loaded with an interactive or automatic LICENSE LOAD command. Running processes are allowed to continue to completion. To use this command, you need CMKRNL, SYSNAM, and SYSPRV privileges. Format LICENSE UNLOAD product-name[,...]
1 – Parameter
product-name[,...] Name of the product to be unloaded. You can unload only licenses that have been loaded. Enter each product name exactly as it appears on its Product Authorization Key (PAK). You cannot use wildcard characters for product-name.
2 – Qualifiers
2.1 /LOG
/LOG /NOLOG (default) Controls whether LICENSE UNLOAD lists the name of each unloaded license.
2.2 /PRODUCER
/PRODUCER=string Positional qualifier. Specifies the name of the company (for example, DEC) that owns the product for which you have a license. The default string for this qualifier on Alpha and VAX is DEC. On Integrity servers, the default string is VSI. If DEC or VSI is not the producer of the product, you must use this qualifier to identify the product. This qualifier affects only the product name that immediately precedes it in the command string. Wildcard characters are not allowed.
3 – Description
LICENSE UNLOAD affects all units for a single product even if the loaded units are combined from multiple licenses. In such a case, you cannot unload the units from a single license. You must unload all the units. You are not required to unload a loaded license before modifying data in the License Database. To maximize product availability, modify licenses in the License Database first, and then load the changes by entering a LICENSE UNLOAD command followed by a LICENSE LOAD command.
4 – Examples
1.$ LICENSE UNLOAD /PRODUCER=DEC FORTRAN This command unloads the VSI Fortran license on the node from which it is entered. 2.$ LICENSE UNLOAD PASCAL,FORTRAN This command unloads the VSI Pascal and VSI Fortran licenses on the node from which it is entered.
