See reader questions & answers on this topic! - Help others by sharing your knowledge Added: 04/16/01 Most licensing systems (LicensePower/iFOR, FLEX/lm, SentinelLM, NetLS, etc..) uniquely identify a system by the MAC address of the system's primary network interface (the interface with the lowest ID number - usually lan0). The MAC address (aka - Station Address or Physical Address) can be obtained by running lanscan, like so: $ lanscan HP-UX 10.x/11.x comes with the LicensePower/iFOR product, which uses only the rightmost eight bytes of the MAC address as the "target ID." This number can be obtained using the following iFOR command: $ /opt/ifor/ls/bin/i4target -v There is also the hardware identification number which is stored on the SPU board. This is the number that is used by HP Software Distributor to uniquely identify a system. The SPU ID can also be used on systems that have no network interface. SPU IDs can only be reset by certified HP technicians. User Contributions:Top Document: comp.sys.hp.hpux FAQ Previous Document: 5.12.1.3 How do I safely remove software from my system?
