Unloads a license, making the product unavailable from the
current node. The product license or licenses must be registered
in the License Database and must have been previously loaded
with an interactive or automatic LICENSE LOAD command. Running
processes are allowed to continue to completion.
To use this command, you need CMKRNL, SYSNAM, and SYSPRV
privileges.
Format
LICENSE UNLOAD product-name[,...]
1 – Parameter
product-name[,...]
Name of the product to be unloaded. You can unload only licenses
that have been loaded. Enter each product name exactly as it
appears on its Product Authorization Key (PAK). You cannot use
wildcard characters for product-name.
2 – Qualifiers
2.1 /LOG
/LOG
/NOLOG (default)
Controls whether LICENSE UNLOAD lists the name of each unloaded
license.
2.2 /PRODUCER
/PRODUCER=string
Positional qualifier.
Specifies the name of the company (for example, DEC) that owns
the product for which you have a license. The default string for
this qualifier on Alpha and VAX is DEC. On Integrity servers,
the default string is HP. If DEC or HP is not the producer of
the product, you must use this qualifier to identify the product.
This qualifier affects only the product name that immediately
precedes it in the command string. Wildcard characters are not
allowed.
3 – Description
LICENSE UNLOAD affects all units for a single product even if
the loaded units are combined from multiple licenses. In such a
case, you cannot unload the units from a single license. You must
unload all the units.
You are not required to unload a loaded license before modifying
data in the License Database. To maximize product availability,
modify licenses in the License Database first, and then load
the changes by entering a LICENSE UNLOAD command followed by a
LICENSE LOAD command.
4 – Examples

This command unloads the HP Fortran license on the node from

2.$ LICENSE UNLOAD PASCAL,FORTRAN
This command unloads the HP Pascal and HP Fortran licenses on
the node from which it is entered.
