IBM i License PAK Registration (Magic xpa 3.x)
The host library and Magic xpa database connection do not require that any licenses be installed on the IBM i server.
The license procedure and the server license mechanism have been changed. There is no need to install Easycom licenses.
Since version: 1.8 SP1
The new license mechanism for the IBM i server is identical to Windows and UNIX. It is based on the license.dat file and license broadcasting.
The valid license names for this version are:
-
MGPART2 for the Magic xpa Partition Server
-
MGENT2 for the Magic xpa Enterprise Server
-
MGRIA for the Magic xpa RIA Server
License errors are shown in the server log file.
The following are recommendations regarding licensing:
-
Activate server logging during server configuration and initial tests.
-
Make sure that you have a valid license file set in the LicenseFile and LicenseName entries of the MAGIC400.ini file.
-
If you have multiple installations of the Magic xpa server on your system, maintain all the licenses in one directory.
