Installing licenses silently

Note: Micro Focus recommends that you use the Micro Focus License Administration tool to install the licenses. You may only need to install licenses silently in some specific scenarios - for example, as part of a silent installation when you are distributing COBOL server with your applications.

After the application installation is complete you can install the license silently by executing the following commands:

Windows

If you don't have access to the Internet but have a file from Micro Focus, FileName, that contains the license string:
For 32-bit Windows environments:
```
start /wait "" "C:\Program Files (x86)\Micro Focus\Licensing\cesadmintool" -term install -f FileName
```
For 64-bit Windows environments:
```
start /wait "" "C:\Program Files (x86)\Micro Focus\Licensing\cesadmintool" -term install -f FileName
```
where FileName is the name of the text file that contains all the license strings to be used.

UNIX

If you don't have access to the Internet but have a file from Micro Focus, FileName, that contains the license string, run the following as root:
```
cd /opt/microfocus/licensing/bin
./cesadmintool.sh -install FileName
```
where FileName is the name of the text file that contains all the license strings to be used.
