lslicense

Use the lslicense command to display current license settings for system features.

Syntax

Parameters

-nohdr: (Optional) Suppresses the display of the headings. By default, headings are displayed for each column of data (in a concise style view that provides general information about objects of a particular type) and for each item of data (in a detailed style view that provides much more information about a specific object of a particular type).
Note: If there is no data to be displayed, headings are not displayed.
-delim delimiter: (Optional) By default in a concise view, all columns of data are space-separated. The width of each column is set to the maximum width of each item of data. In a detailed view, each item of data has its own row, and if the headers are displayed, the data is separated from the header by a space. The -delim parameter overrides this behavior. Valid input for the -delim parameter is a 1-byte character. If you enter -delim :, a colon character (:) separates all items of data in a concise view; for example, the spacing of columns does not occur. In a detailed view, the data is separated from its header by the specified delimiter.

Description

The lslicense command displays license settings for system features, including remote copy and virtualization settings.

Use the chlicense command to change the feature license settings. Because the feature license settings are entered when the system is first created, you must update the settings if you change your license.

This table provides the possible values that are applicable to the attributes that are displayed as data in the output views.

Table 1. lslicense output
Attribute	Possible Values
used_flash	Indicates the amount of capacity used with FlashCopy®.
used_remote	Indicates the amount of capacity used with replication features.
used_virtualization	Indicates the amount of capacity used for virtualization.
license_flash	Indicates the amount of capacity licensed for FlashCopy features.
license_remote	Indicates the amount of capacity licensed for replication features.
license_virtualization	Indicates the amount of capacity licensed for virtualization settings.
license_physical_disks	Indicates the amount of physical disk space available for the license.
license_physical_flash	Indicates whether the license's physical flash is on or off.
license_physical_remote	Indicates whether the physical remote copy license is on or off.
scu_ratio_scm	Indicates the storage capacity unit (SCU) ratio for `SCM` tier storage. The value must be a number with two decimal places.
used_virtualization_tier_scm	Indicates the amount of capacity used for virtualization on tier_scm storage. The value must be zero on platforms where virtualization is not licensed as per SCU.
used_virtualization_tier_flash	Indicates the amount of capacity used for virtualization on tier0_flash and tier1_flash storage. The value must be zero on platforms where virtualization is not licensed as per SCU.
used_virtualization_tier_enterprise	Indicates the amount of capacity used for virtualization on tier_enterprise storage. The value must be zero on platforms where virtualization is not licensed as per SCU.
