[INTERNAL ITRS ONLY] - How to run License Report Verifier to send new License Audit Reports to Sales

Note that clients will need to be running a minimum of GA7.8 License Daemon.

docs.itrsgroup.com/docs/all/geneos/geneos-upgrade-notes/index.html#changes-in-licence-daemon-reporting-and-license-files

A client will need to provide ITRS with a License Report File - which should be in the Reporting directory within the License Daemon install.

The file needed is this licd-report.emf2rpt

A client can verify the data themselves by running a command like below

tail -c +9 licd-report.emf2rpt | gunzip | jq .

Example Output

But note the client must just send us the report file itself and not run commands against the file and then send the output from those commands.

Before sending to Sales - Support will need to download the report verifier tool - this can be located in Nexus Downloads. Link below for GA7.9 version

https://nexus.itrsgroup.com/repository/releases/com/itrsgroup/geneos/geneos-licd-report-verifier/7.9.0/geneos-licd-report-verifier-7.9.0-linux-x64.tar.gz

Extract the above to your Unix directory and copy the report file there

You can run the following commands against the report file

• To verify: licd-report-verifier.linux_64 report.emf2rpt
• To get JSON: licd-report-verifier.linux_64 report.emf2rpt -output report.json
• To get CSV of requirements: report-verifier.linux_64 report.emf2rpt -requirements report.csv
