1 – Parameter
product-name[,...] Name or names of products with a license that you want to list. You can list only licenses that currently exist on disk in the License Database. You can specify one product name or use wildcard characters to display licenses. The product-name parameter is optional; the default is to display all of the licenses.
2 – Qualifiers
2.1 /AUTHORIZATION
/AUTHORIZATION=string Positional qualifier. Specifies a string that helps identify the license you want to list. You must enter the authorization string exactly as it appears on your PAK. Use this optional qualifier only if you need it to identify the license. This qualifier affects only the product name that immediately precedes it in the command string.
2.2 /BEFORE
Used with /TERMINATION_DATE and /RELEASE_DATE, selects only those licenses whose times are before the time specified with the other qualifiers. The /BEFORE qualifier cannot be used with the /SINCE qualifier.
2.3 /BRIEF
/BRIEF (default) Specifies a listing from the License Database that includes only the license product and producer names.
2.4 /DATABASE
/DATABASE=filespec Specifies the location of the License Database. The default file specification is defined by the logical name LMF$LICENSE, which points to SYS$COMMON:[SYSEXE]LMF$LICENSE.LDB on an unmodified OpenVMS system. Use this optional qualifier only if you do not use the default License Database name and location.
2.5 /FULL
Specifies a listing from the License Database that includes a full display of the specified license or licenses.

2.8 /OUTPUT
/OUTPUT[=filespec] Specifies the name of the file to which your list is written. If you do not specify the /OUTPUT qualifier, or if you do not supply a file specification with this qualifier, the output is sent to SYS$OUTPUT.
2.9 /PRODUCER
/PRODUCER=string Positional qualifier. Specifies the name of the company (for example, HP) that owns the product for which you have a license. Use this optional qualifier only if you need it to identify the license. This qualifier affects only the product name that immediately precedes it in the command string.
2.10 /RELEASE_DATE
/RELEASE_DATE=date Used with /BEFORE or /SINCE, specifies a listing from the License Database that includes only licenses with a release date on or after the date specified. The date must be presented in the standard OpenVMS format: dd-mmm-yyyy. The default value is /SINCE /RELEASE_DATE=TODAY.
2.11 /SELECTION_WEIGHT
Produces a full display that includes the current selection weights assigned to individual PAKs.
2.12 /SINCE
Used with /TERMINATION_DATE and /RELEASE_DATE, selects only those licenses whose times are after the time specified with the other qualifiers. /SINCE cannot be used with /BEFORE.
2.13 /TERMINATION_DATE
/TERMINATION_DATE[=date] Used with /BEFORE or /SINCE, specifies a listing from the License Database that includes only licenses with a termination date on or after the date specified. The date must be presented in the standard OpenVMS format: dd-mmm-yyyy. The default value is /SINCE /TERMINATION_DATE=TODAY.
2.14 /VERSION
/VERSION=nn.nn Positional qualifier. Specifies the version number of the product for which you have a license. Versions use the format integer.integer. You can specify wildcard syntax as *.* but not * alone. Use this optional qualifier only if you need it to identify the license. This qualifier affects only the product name that immediately precedes it in the command string.
3 – Description
LICENSE LIST displays license records as they appear on disk in the License Database. LICENSE LIST /BRIEF does not produce a display with history records. You can control the displays as follows: o After you enter LICENSE LIST with the /BRIEF qualifier, you can scroll through the display with the arrow keys on your keyboard. o After you enter LICENSE LIST with the /FULL or /HISTORY qualifier, which displays the first LICENSE record, you can see the other records one at a time by pressing Return. You can also scroll through the license records using the Previous Screen key (or PF3) and the Next Screen key (or PF4). For any LICENSE LIST display, use the arrow keys to scroll vertically or horizontally one line at a time. Press Ctrl/Z to exit from the display. Note that a LICENSE LIST command may display the status of a registered license as Active. This means the registered license is enabled for loading; it has not been disabled. It does not necessarily mean the license was loaded with a LICENSE LOAD command. The LICENSE LIST command displays only information on disk in the License Database; enter SHOW LICENSE to determine all active licenses on the current system. You can also list licenses using the VMSLICENSE.COM command procedure.
