Greetings:


I was placed in charge of trying to find a unified command to run with
UNIX systems that will report back the Veritas Software Licenses that
are installed on that machine. Is there such a command or are there
different commands for each of the Veritas software packages?


I have heard of a command of vxlicense as well as vxdctl. Will either
of these be able to export the list of installed Veritas licenses for a

system.


Any help would be GREATLY appreicated!!!


Regards,
Andras Vancsa

You sure about that? I've got a pile of hosts with VxVM on them
and no such command -- at least not in /sbin, /bin, /opt, or /usr.

However, they do all have /sbin/vxlicrep which may be what the OP
was looking for. It describes itself as reporting on all Veritas
products, not just VxVM.

Depends on the version. I believe vxlicense was the older utility (used
through VxVM 3.2 or so) and vxlicrep is current.
