How to Change the Open iT License

Copy the New License File #

  1. Go to the Core Server machine.
  2. Copy the contents of the new license file to the following directory/file:
    • C:\Program Files\OpeniT\Core\Configuration\license
  3. Restart Open iT Daemons:
    • You need to restart all Open iT daemons. You can do this by running the following commands as an administrator:
