• Software Key Required for 5722-XW1 in V5R1 and Later Releases
• Installation Information
• Managing Users and Managing License Key Information

With iSeries V5R1 and later software releases, iSeries Access Family (Licensed Program 5722-XW1) is added to the Keyed Stamped Media, which provides customers a 70-day evaluation period for the functions that require the iSeries Access Family license. These functions include:

• For iSeries Access for Windows (formerly called "Client Access Express"): the PC5250 display and printer emulation and data transfer components
• All components of iSeries Access for Web
• Applications that have been developed using the iSeries Access Family product WebSphere Host Publisher V3.5 or V4.0.

After 70 days, customers must order user-based licenses or a processor license for the 5722-XW1 product to receive the software license key.

As in prior releases, any component of iSeries Access for Windows can be installed on the PC, whether the components require a license or not. Also as in prior releases, the 5722-XW1 license will be checked at the point that the user tries to use a licensed function. The difference for V5R1 and later releases is that users will be allowed 70 days to evaluate the licensed functions.

The user who installs the software and manages the software licenses at a customer site will need to know the following details:

The 5722-XW1 licensed program will now come with both a base (Feature 5050) and option 1 (Feature 5101). When 5722-XW1 is ordered, the customer automatically gets both the base and option 1. Both need to be installed when XW1 is installed on the iSeries or AS/400e server. Then the usage limit is entered for 5722XW1 base, and the license key information is entered for 5722XW1 Option 1.

For software upgrades to V5R1 or later, if XW1 exists on the former system, both XW1 base and XW1 option 1 would automatically be installed on the target system.

For new installs, both the base and option 1 would be installed automatically in these scenarios:

1. When XW1 is ordered and preloaded on the server.
2. When a customer is installing a new system and selects "Installed products," "All products" or "New products," which is the use of GO LICPGM option 1.

Both base and option 1 must be manually selected in these scenarios:

1. When a customer installs the 5722-XW1 LP individually with the RSTLICPGM (Restore Licensed Program) command.
2. When a customer selects one or more LPs to install from a list of all LPs that the Install component knows about, which is the use of GO LICPGM option 11.

To use licensed functions of iSeries Access clients, in addition to having 5722-XW1 iSeries Access Family base and option 1 installed on the iSeries or AS/400e server, the usage limit and license key information must be entered for 5722-XW1 with the following steps:

1. Update the usage limit for 5722-XW1 by doing the following:
2. 1. Type the WRKLICINF command on the System i to which you intend to connect. A list of products appears.
   2. Type 2 in the entry field next to the product 5722XW1 Base, Feature 5050.
   3. On the Change License Information (CHGLICINF) display, change the usage limit to the number of licenses that you purchased for the iSeries Access Family. If you purchased the processor-based option for iSeries Access Family, enter the value *NOMAX for usage limit (The purchase invoice will indicate either a number of users purchased or a processor group). Using a number that exceeds the purchased limit violates the IBM license agreement.
3. Update the license key information for 5722-XW1 by doing the following:
4. 1. Type the WRKLICINF command on the System i to which you intend to connect. A list of products appears.
   2. Type 1 in the entry field next to the product 5722XW1 Option 1, Feature 5101.
   3. On the Add License Key Information (ADDLICKEY) display, some fields may already contain the required information, such as the product identifier, version, release, modification numbers, system serial number, etc.

   4.     ADDLICKEY values for Usage Limit and Processor Group for Feature 5101:

      • In the Usage Limit field on the ADDLICKEY display, always enter the value *NOMAX, as indicated on your key sheet, regardless of the usage limit entered for 5722XW1 Base (Feature 5050) in step 1 above.
        

        The Usage Limit value of *NOMAX is required as part of the software key, but it is not a representation of the number of users licensed under a usage based license.

      • In the Processor Group field on the ADDLICKEY display, for a user-based license, enter the value of *ANY. A processor-based license will have a processor group value that corresponds to the processor group licensed.
