Uploading license files

You can upload license files to the storage system to make them available to install. To install an uploaded license file, create a new instance of the license resource type.

For information about the license resource type, see the Unisphere Management REST API Reference Guide.

Syntax

To upload a license file, use the following components:

Headers 
Accept: application/json
Content-Type: application/json
X-EMC-REST-CLIENT: true
EMC-CSRF-TOKEN: <token>
Operations 
POST
URI pattern 
/upload/license
Body
Empty.
Usage
You must POST the upgrade file using a multipart/form-data format as if from a simple web page form, like that shown in the following example: 
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
 <body>
   <form enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post"
     action="https://<IP_address>/upload/license">
     <input type="file" name="filename>"/> 
      <input type="submit"/> 
    </form>
 </body>
</html>
A successful upload request returns 200 OK HTTP status code. If the request does not succeed, the server returns a 4nn or 5nn HTTP status code in the response header and a message entity in the response body.

Example

The following example uploads the license file license1.lic from the local host to the storage server:

Header 
Accept: application/json
Content-Type: application/json
X-EMC-REST-CLIENT: true
EMC-CSRF-TOKEN: <token>
Request 
<html>
  <body>
    <form enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" action="https://10.108.253.216/upload/license"
        <input type="file" name="filename"/>
        <input type="submit"/>
    </form>
  </body>
filename="license1.lic"
Request body
Empty.
Response body (raw) for a successful response
Empty.
