  1. Create an activation request (see Creating an activation request). To do this, you need to collect computer's HID using the LS_tool utility by running it at the command line:
    Code Block
    C:\Program Files\Common Files\VMS\VMS License Server>LS_tool.exe --collect-hwinfo
  2. Contact an AxxonSoft manager to get the necessary License-server_InstallerWix.zip package and the keyfile.zip license key package for the private License Server.
    The keyfile.zip key package contains:
    1. Certificate: ngp.licserver.crt

    2. Private key: ngp.licserver.key
    3. Server key: server.license.key

    4. Client key: license.key

  3. Run the License-server.msi file from the package, received from an AxxonSoft manager. The installation will be performed in the C:\Program Files\Common Files\VMS\VMS License Server directory.
    After the installation, the following will be added:

    1. The VMS License Server program will be added to Programs and Features.
    2. The VMS_License_Service will be added to Services. It will start immediately after the installation. After restarting the Server, the service will start automatically. In Task Manager in Processes, the process of the running service is called license_service.exe. After the process is finished, a new process will start in one minute.
  4. Add the LEASE_ACCOUNTER_TLS_AUTH_ENABLED system variable with the value true (see Appendix 9. Creating system variable).
  5. Stop the VMS_License_Service in Services.
  6. Add the server.license.key to the C:\Program Files\Common Files\VMS\VMS License Server\keys folder.
  7. Rename the ngp.licserver.key private key to ls.key and the ngp.licserver.crt certificate to ls.crt and add them to the C:\Program Files\Common Files\VMS\VMS License Server folder. Confirm the file replacement.
  8. Start the VMS_License_Service.
  9. Stop the VMS_License_Service.
  10. In the C:\Program Files\Common Files\VMS\VMS License Server\keys folder, delete the server.license.key. Only the key named as the system ID must remain in the folder.
  11. Start the VMS_License_Service.
