NCache 4.4 - Online Documentation

Activate NCache Purchased License

 
This PowerShell script lets you activate NCache license on remote machines. It makes your administrative tasks easy when you have many servers to activate because you don't have to manually activate the license on each server.
You should have internet access on all the machines where you want to activate NCache through the PowerShell script. Internally, this script uses command line tool NActivate.exe of NCache. You must have to provide valid admin user id and password that has the permissions to execute commands on remote machine.
Please refer to the Troubleshooting Install script section if you have any issue in executing this script. You should find the UninstallNCache .ps1 script at the NCache installation path in the integration folder:
 
%INSTALLPATH%/NCache/Integration/PowerShell/ ActivateNCache.ps1
 
PS C:/Users>./ ActivateNCache.ps1 /k  key /f  first-name /l  last-name /email  email-address /uid server-username /pwd server-password [ options[...] ].

In the following examples we will activate NCache License key on three machines Test1, Test2, and Test3 using the PowerShell script ActivateNCache.ps1. It is assumed that NCache is installed on the default path “C:/program files”.
 
Example of Activating NCache License Remotely:
 
PS C:/Program Files/ncache/integration/PowerShell>./ ActivateNCache.ps1 /k xxxxxxxx-xxxxxx-xxxxxxxx /f Paul /l Jones /email paul.jones@alachisoft.com /servers Test1, Test2, Test3 /uid Administrator /pwd 123pwd
 
This will activate NCache on three machines Test1, Test2 and Test3. Please replace the server “Test1, Test2, Test3” with your own server names.
