Updating the Current License

In Virtuozzo, you can use the vzlicupdate utility to update the license currently installed on the host. When executed, the utility tries to connect to the Key Authentication (KA) server and to retrieve a new license and install it on the server. To update your license, do the following:

1. Make sure that the host where you wish to update the license is connected to the Internet.
2. Execute the following command on the server:

   # vzlicupdate

By default, vzlicupdate tries to access the KA server having the hostname of ka.virtuozzo.com. However, you can explicitly specify what KA server to use using the --server option:

# vzlicupdate --server ka.server.com

In this case, the vzlicupdate utility will try to connect to the KA server with the hostname of ka.server.com, to get a new license from this server, and to install it on the server where vzlicupdate has been executed.

Note: Your physical server must be assigned at least one public IPv4 address for the correct operation of the vzlicupdate utility.
