There are two methods for updating the platform license. These methods do NOT require the server to be restarted.
- Web UI
- Copying the license file to the correct Data Virtuality folder

In this example, my Data Virtuality server's IP address is 192.168.0.18, please replace this address with the IP address of your server.
Connect to the web UI on port 8080
If you has TLS enabled please use HTTPS as your prefix.
