Administrator's Reference
Use the REGISTER LICENSE command to register a new license with the
Tivoli Storage Manager server or to change the quantity of registered
licenses. You should always specify the entire number of registered
licenses when issuing this command. Licenses are stored in files that
are called enrollment certificate files. These certificates are files
that contain licensing information for the server product.
When registered, the licenses are stored in a file named NODELOCK in the
current directory that the server was started from.
Privilege Class
To issue this command, you must have system privilege.
