Setting a License After Starting the Server

You can set the license for the server using the REST API. You can also use the API to configure the connection to CTP (see the env.manager.* settings in Configuring Virtualize Server Configuration).

1. Start the server and go to the endpoint for writing to the .properties file:
   
   http://<host>:<port>/soavirt/api/v5#!/preferences/preferencesPUT_config
    
2. Enter your license setting as a JSON object into the input field and click Try it out!. The documentation describes the structure of the valid objects. See the Licensing the Server Example Requests for examples that you can copy and paste into the UI. The following example sets a network license:
   
3. If the license is valid and the parameters are set correctly, the API will return the appropriate response.
   
4. Call the following endpoint by clicking the Try it out! button to verify the license has been set successfully:  
   
   http://<host>:<port>/soavirt/api#!/status/statusGET
   
   This will show information about the server host and the state of each license feature.

Example Requests

You can copy and paste the following JSON examples into your REST API endpoint to help you get started. Change the host, port, and any feature settings to match your license.
