Chapter 32 License File Upload
Uploading a License File
complete the upgrade to Cisco Unified Communications Manager 7.1, upload the software feature
license that is required for Cisco Unified Communications Manager 7.1 in Cisco Unified
Communications Manager Administration and restart the Cisco CallManager service in Cisco Unified
Serviceability. Until you perform these tasks, devices fail to register with Cisco Unified
Communications Manager 7.1.
Note Upload the license file only on the first node of Cisco Unified Communications Manager cluster.
Procedure
Step 1 Choose System > Licensing > License File Upload.
The License File Upload window displays.
Step 2 The Existing License Files drop-down list box displays the license files that are already uploaded to the
server.
Note To view the file content of any existing files, choose the file from the drop-down list box and
click View File.
Step 3 To choose a new license file to upload, click Upload License File.
The Upload File pop-up window displays.
Step 4 To upload to the server, click Browse to choose a license file.
Note The format of the license file that you receive specifies CCM<timestamp>.lic. If you retain
the
.lic extension, you can rename the license file. You cannot use the license if you edit the
contents of the file in any way.
Step 5 Click Upload.
After the upload process completes, the Upload Result file displays.
Step 6 Click Close.
Step 7 In the License File Upload window, the status of the uploaded file displays. In Cisco Unified
Serviceability, restart the Cisco CallManager service.
Note The system uploads the license file into the database only if the version that is specified in the
license file is greater than or equal to the Cisco Unified Communications Manager version that
is running in the cluster. If the version check fails, an alarm gets generated, and you should get
a new license file with the correct version. The system bases the version check only on major
releases.
