What is a license key file

A license key is a unit of authentication that enables certain features of the XSI software. License keys are stored in a database which is read by the license server. A license key file is an encrypted file containing license keys for your server. To access those licenses you must install this file onto your license server. Note that the key file can only be installed on the server for which it was generated. A license key file is saved with a (*.keys) extension.

An example of a license key file:

# SPM validation code:
#  Lines starting with '#' are comment lines and can be omitted
#  Lines starting with '*' are required and contain the following:
#   *     rq version     vendor name     key level
#  Lines starting with '>' are required and contain the following:
#   >     hostname     sysid
#  (if no dongle is used the sysid is zeroed - do not change it)
#  All remaining lines are required as well
#  
# If you have to type this in from a FAX sheet note that the
# following characters are used: the digits 0-9 and the upper
# case letters A-Z except B, I, O, and Q
# You may type upper and/or lower case letters as you like
