Generating a Product Activation Request

You use your Customer ID to generate a Product Activation Request in Novell iManager. You should create a Driver Set object before you generate a Product Activation Request to activate DirXML.

NOTE:  You will need to generate only one Product Activation Request for each tree where the driver is installed.

  1. Open iManager.

  2. Click DirXML Management > Activation Request Wizard.

  3. Enter the name of the driver set or browse to a driver set where you want the driver to be activated > click Next.

  4. If the driver set is not associated with a server or is associated with multiple servers, select a server to associate with a driver set > click Next.

    When you select the server, your customer ID and identifying information about the server's tree are stored in the Product Activation Request.

  5. Enter your Novell Customer ID > click Next to build your Activation Request file.

  6. Copy the Activation Request file into the text area to the clipboard > click Next.

    You will need to paste the contents of this file in a text area at the Novell Product Activator Web site.

    IMPORTANT:  Do not edit the content of the Product Activation Request.

  7. Click the hyperlink to launch the Novell Product Activator Web site.

    or

    Click Finish to return to the main menu of iManager.

NOTE:  To continue the activation process, you need to submit this Product Activation Request to Novell at the Novell Product Activator Web site. For information, see Submitting an Activation Request .
