Introduction and Recommendations
The license key request application allows you to request keys for licenses
purchased on SAP paper http://support.sap.com/licensekey.
We recommend to use a Sybase installation number to set up system IDs
and register your license keys.
Installation numbers can be requested under
http://support.sap.com/contactus.
More information about Sybase license keys can be found in the Help &
FAQ section on http://support.sap.com/licensekey.
In case of questions or technical issue with the license keys please open a
message on XX-SER-LIKEY-SYB.

Before you begin choose your license model
Below is an excerpt from the SySAM 2 Users Guide. It is recommended you

review the SySAM 2 Users Guide prior to generating your license keys.
Determining Your License Deployment Model:
Before you generate licenses for SySAM 2-enabled products, determine the
license deployment model to use.
There are two license deployment models from which to choose: the served
license model or the un-served license model.
When you use the un-served license deployment model, you generate and
download a separate license for each machine where the product runs.
SAP recommends that you use the served license model if you run products
on more than several machines, as this simplifies and centralizes license
administration providing more control over software assets.
After you download the un-served licenses, you can install your Sybase
products.
Customer
12

Un-served Licenses
Served Licenses
Licenses can be used only on the machine for which

the license was generated.
Licenses can be distributed from a network license

server to products running on any network machine.
Generate licenses for each machine that will run the

product:
1. Specify the host ID of the machine where the
product will run.
2. Generate a license for that machine.
3. Save the license to the specified machine.
4. Repeat steps 1 - 3 for each machine where the
product will run.
Generate a single license key for products running

on multiple machines:
1. Specify the host ID of the license server.
2. Specify the number of required licenses.
3. Save the licenses to the license server host
machine.
No license administration is required. However,

when new licenses are required for product updates,
you must update and deploy each license for each
machine where the product update will run.
The license server requires administration. When

new licenses are required for product updates, SMP
lets you update all licenses for a specific license
server in a single step.
No license reporting or asset management

capabilities are available.
Allows license monitoring and reporting of license

use, capacity planning, and asset management
using SAMreport.
Customer

Un-served Licenses
Served Licenses
Installed locally and always available.
Requires a functioning license server and network. If

the license server or network fails, you must fix the
problem or install an alternate license server before
the product grace period expires.
If a machine where the product is running fails, you

must regenerate all of its licenses and deploy those
licenses to the replacement machines.
If a machine where the product is running fails, you

can move the product to a new machine, and it will
acquire licenses from the running license server.
If the license server host machine fails, use the
Manage License Hosts functionality at SMP to move
its licenses to a new network license server host.
License files are distributed across each machine

running a product, and therefore they are difficult to
manage and control.
License files are centrally located and managed.
Un-served Standalone Seat (SS) licenses do not

allow product use via Remote Desktop Connection
or other terminal services clients.
Products can be used via Remote Desktop

Connection or other Terminal Services clients,
irrespective of the type of license in use.
