Is there a way to add a license to the Quest Application Configuration using the command line instead of the control center?
-
Resolution
Yes you can use the the 'vastool license add' command to add the license to the Quest Application Configuration (QAC) which is a container in AD that stores product information.
Additionally the username with permission to add the license is also required. A full command may look more like this:
/opt/quest/bin/vastool -u admin license add licensefile.txt
Please NOTE: The machine should be joined to Active Directory prior to running this command or the default realm should be populated in the vas.conf for the command to complete successfully.
