Step 2 — Add a license

After accessing the console, the next step is to add a license. You can generate a license file with your license key and your server’s hardware serial number through the self-service Knox E-FOTA On-Premises Resources web page > Download License Files.

Use these commands to get the hardware serial number of your server machine:

On Windows Powershell:

    Get-WmiObject -class Win32_Bios | Out-String -stream | Select-String -Pattern Serial

On Linux:

    sudo dmidecode -t2 | grep Serial

Once you’ve prepared your generated license file, you can add the license:

1. In the Knox E-FOTA On-Premises console, click your account icon.

2. In the menu that’s shown, click Settings.

3. The navigation sidebar pane refreshes with a new set of tabs. Click License.

4. Click UPLOAD LICENSE.

   

5. In the popup that’s shown, click BROWSER to launch the file explorer, where you can locate your license file to upload. Select the file, then click Open.

6. Click UPLOAD to finish uploading the license.

The License screen then displays the details of your license.

Refer to Manage licenses to learn more.
