The Send License (SNDLIC) command provides the capability to send one or more license keys from the central site system to one or more managed systems. Only the license keys matching the system serial number will be added to the managed system license repository.

Notes:

1. A change request is automatically submitted which can be viewed to determine the status of this command. A message is returned identifying the name of the change request.
2. All the existing records in the central site license repository containing the license key information for the specified product will be sent to the specified managed system or systems. Only those ones that match the system serial number are added to the managed system license repository.

Restrictions:

1. This command is shipped with public authority of *EXCLUDE.
2. If a node list (NODL) value is specified, the node list can only contain entries that have a value of *SNA for the address type.
3. The license key information for the specified product and managed system must exist in the central site license repository.

library-name

Only the library named in this keyword is searched.

The possible value for the node list name is:

node-list-name

Node list object name which contains the list of systems on which the command is to be performed.

Managed system node names (CPNAME)

The APPN control point names of the managed systems on which this activity is to be performed. Control point names cannot be specified if the node list (NODL) parameter is specified.

*NONE

The systems on which this activity is to be performed are not identified individually. A node list must be specified.

*NETATR
