Review the effective license

Go to Administer and select License Management. The Overview tab opens by default.

Overview shows the Effective License card. One installation resolves to one effective license, so this card is the whole answer rather than one of several.

The card states who the license belongs to and what was bought:

• CUSTOMER and CUSTOMER ID identify the licensed organization.

• CONTRACT and PRODUCT name the commercial agreement and the product.

• SUPPORT LEVEL is the support tier carried in the license: Standard, Premium, or Signature.

• TERM and the commercial term end date state how long the license runs.

License key material is never displayed. Only the license key identifier is shown, and keys are masked everywhere they could otherwise appear.

The grants section states what the license permits:

• Licensed DB Types are the database types you are entitled to use, with a count of how many types you may use.

• DB Target capacity is how many distinct databases you may act on.

• Components, Modules, and Capabilities are the parts of Liquibase the license switches on.

Both capacity rows show where their total came from, split into two parts:

• Included: the capacity that comes with your base license, which is the license for your Liquibase Secure subscription.

• Add-on: extra capacity you bought separately. It arrives in its own add-on license file and adds to the capacity of your base license.

For example, a base license for 750 targets plus an add-on for 250 targets reads 750 included + 250 add-on = 1,000. If no add-on license is in effect, the add-on part is 0.

A consolidated license file works differently. Instead of giving you your base license and your add-ons as separate files, Liquibase can combine them into one consolidated file. Liquibase adds up the capacity before it signs the file, so the file holds a single total for each grant. The card marks this with a From consolidated file badge and shows the whole total as included, even if part of it originally came from an add-on. For example, a consolidated file built from a 750-target base license and a 250-target add-on reads 1,000 included + 0 add-on = 1,000.

If you later import a separate add-on file on top of a consolidated file, that add-on counts as an add-on as usual. The next step shows which file contributed what.

Look at the Contributing Files panel beside the card.

Each contributing file states what it carried into the answer in its own terms rather than the installation's total. An add-on reads as a positive increment, such as +10 targets, next to a card showing the combined figure.

A file that was excluded names the quantities it put at stake as well as the reason it does not count. A file that once contributed and then stopped is described as having withdrawn its grants. A file that never counted is described as stating them, marked as not counted.

Above the tabs, a banner states anything that needs attention:

• No license in effect means nothing stored here licenses the installation.

• License expired with no renewal installed means the term has ended.

• Out of contract terms names how many licensed DB Targets are in use against how many are granted.

• Renewal license active names the file that now governs and the older files it superseded. Superseded files stay in the list read only, and only the governing file counts.

Each banner has one button. On the out of contract banner, Request Expansion opens the Utilization tab, where the overage is broken down. The other banners offer View License Files.

Select Export on the card and choose CSV or JSON to download the effective license as a file.
