Product Keys

A product key is valid for a specific product for a specific CPU (or a specific site) until the expiration date. Each product key begins with a PROD statement and specifies the product, expiration date, and associated LMP key.

Product keys have the following format:

PROD(pp) DATE(ddmmmyy) CPU(tttt-mmmm/ssssss) LMPCODE(kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk)

or

PROD(pp) DATE(ddmmmyy) CPU(SITE-****/ssssss) LMPCODE(kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk)

where:

PROD

Defines the two-character product code.

DATE

Defines the CA LMP licensing agreement expiration date. For example:

25JUL15

specifies an expiration date of July 25, 2015

Note: CA LMP licensing supports the 21st century date format. However, only the last two digits of the years will be displayed.

CPU

Specifies the CPU type, model, and serial number on which the product will run. If the CPU type and model require less than four characters, insert blank spaces for the unused characters.

If your site has been issued a site license for a product, this will specify the site ID that must appear on the SITEID record for this key to be valid, and the CPU serial number.

LMPCODE

Specifies the LMP key for the product.
