Re: [Xen-users] [XCP] Host Disabled, License expired, Can't renable

["Kyle" <kyle@xxxxxx>]

Hi Errol

Try this

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/bash

#Script to fix XCP 30 License expire issue
#Script increases the month value by 1
#By: Ronny L. Bull & Alex Stuart
#Version: 1.0
#Date: 8-9-2011

FUTURE=`date --date="next Month" '+%Y%m%d'`

#stop xapi service
/etc/init.d/xapi stop

#Replace the expiry entry
sed -i "s/\(expiry.\{3\}\)[0-9]\{8\}/\1$FUTURE/g" /var/xapi/state.db

#start xapi service
/etc/init.d/xapi start
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you have a pool, you have to replace the expiry date in all of the
members of the pool.. so you have to add a "g" at the end of sed comand to
replace all the occurrences.

sed -i "s/<regular expresion>/<regular expresion>/g" file

Hope it helps

Kyle
