Counting Licensed Objects

Datical DB Liquibase business is licensed by the number of DbDefs connections managed in a database objectan organization. The object licensed depends on the type of database. 

...

...

License counting is a routine part of verifying the number of database connections (DbDefs) that you are managing, compared to the number that you are licensed to manage. 

...

To count licenses, do the following: 

1. Log on to a host where you have created

   Datical DB

   Liquibase Business projects. 

2. Run the license counter. The output goes to stdout, so provide a redirection to a file. 

   Code Block
   Linux: hammer licenseCounter ~/datical > DaticalLicenseCountLBBLicenseCount.txt Windows: hammer.bat licenseCounter C:\DaticalLBBusiness\Projects > DaticalLicenseCountLBBLicenseCount.txt

   
   

3. Inspect the license file to determine the number of licenses in use on the host. The following example shows the format of the report. 

   Code Block
