MergeOLF Utility

The MergeOLF utility lets you move licenses from one ARCserve system to another ARCserve system.

With this utility you can install new licenses on an ARCserve system that has existing licenses and merges multiple license files into a single file. This utility displays messages about the status in the console and generates the output in a file you specify. You run the command from a command line.

MERGEOLF <new_olf> [-c <current_olf>] [-o <output_olf>] [-b <backup_olf>] [-d <debug_log>]
