Relicensing an expired license

Post by chulett »

Have a test server's license expire over the holidays on 1/1/2007 and now having a silly problem. I was able to go into the Administrator and connect (in spite of the fact that the license is expired, nice) and successfully re-licensed it with the permanent license. It tells me the changes won't take effect until everything is restarted. Fine and dandy.

Go to shutdown the server from the command line and it won't obey:

Code: Select all

$ ./bin/uvsh -admin -stop
Engine is unlicensed.  Exiting.

That's all it does - exits without doing anything - Server is still running along on the expired license. So... other than to take off and nuke it from orbit, how do I get it shutdown gracefully? :?

:oops: Ok, that was stoopie. Not sure why I decided to add an 'sh' onto the command:

Code: Select all

$ ./bin/uv -admin -stop
DataStage Engine 7.5.2.1 instance "ade" has been brought down.

Doh!
