3.3 Check PMDF-TLS license before upgrading

The PMDF-TLS installation procedure will ask you to enter in your PMDF-TLS license, which you should have received when you licensed PMDF-TLS. If you are upgrading PMDF-TLS, you should check that you have a PMDF-TLS license valid for the new version.

Note that PMDF license information is stored in files with names of the form product-name.license, located in the PMDF table directory, so the PMDF-TLS license will be stored in a file named PMDF-TLS-NT.license. A PMDF-TLS license file has the format:

Issuer:Innosoft 
Authorization Number:auth-number
Product Name:PMDF-TLS-NT 
Producer:Innosoft 
Product Release Date:release-date
Product Token:token
Checksum:checksum
where auth-number, token, release-date, and checksum are specific to your PMDF-TLS license.

For an update installation of PMDF-TLS, check that the release date i.e., the value on the fifth line of the file, is later than the release date of the PMDF-TLS version that you wish to install. PMDF licenses allow operation of PMDF software released before the license release date. New PMDF product licenses are issued when your maintenance contract is renewed, not when new versions of software are released.
