Changing the License Key For a Host
At any time, you can change the license key for a host from the Host Status page. You might need to change the license key if your license key expires, if you need to use some features that are not covered in your existing license key, if you upgrade your hardware with more CPUs and/or more cores, if you need a license that covers a larger database, if you require different languages, or for various other reasons. Changing the license key sometimes results in an automatic restart of MarkLogic (for example, if your new license enables a new language).
To change the license key for a host, follow these steps in the Admin Interface:
Click Security in the left tree menu. A list of security items appears.
Click Users.
Click the Status tab. The Host Status page appears.
Click the License key button. The License Key Entry page appears.
Enter your new license key information. For information about licensing of MarkLogic Server, contact your MarkLogic sales representative.
After entering valid information in the Licensee and License Key fields, click OK. If it needs to, MarkLogic will automatically restart, and the new license key will take effect.
Note
Any optionally licensed features enabled by your license key appear in the License Key Options field.
