When you install the full version of Novell Audit, the license file is installed with the product and the product is automatically activated; that is, you can configure all the product channels and instrumentations.
If you install the Novell Audit Starter Pack and you want to upgrade to the full version without re-installing the product, you must purchase a product license.
NOTE:The Novell Audit Starter Pack is a scaled down version of Novell Audit. It allows you to configure the File, SMTP and MySQL channels along with the Windows and Log File Parser instrumentations. However, if you want to use any other channel or instrumentation, you must purchase a product license.
If you configure an unlicensed channel or instrumentation without a Novell Audit license, the Secure Logging Server (lengine) does not load. You must either remove or disable the channel or instrumentation to allow lengine to load.
When you purchase a license to upgrade from the Novell Audit Starter Pack to the full version, you receive a license file with an .nlf extension. To activate the full version of Novell Audit, you must copy the license file to the directory that contains the Secure Logging Server program file, lengine.
The following table outlines the default lengine directory for each platform:
Table 5-1 Default lengine Directory
|
Platform |
Directory |
|---|---|
|
NetWare |
sys:\system\naudit.nlf |
|
Windows |
\program files\novell\nsure audit\naudit.nlf |
|
Linux |
/opt/novell/naudit/naudit.nlf |
|
Solaris |
/opt/NOVLnaudit/naudit.nlf |
After you copy the license file to the lengine directory,
you must restart the logging server. For instructions, see Secure
Logging Server Startup Commands
