Hi! 

I have been using multiple demo license for VxVM 4.1 for Solaris on a test
server and now have installed a purchased license.However when I use vxlicrep
to list the license it shows all the demo licenses first and then the valid
permanent license. How can I remove all the demo license so it shows just

Veritas products will always look for a valid license. So it does not 
matter if there are some demo (or expired) licenses.

If you don't like the output, then do   "vxlicrep"

Find the demo keys (something like XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XX)
go to /etc/vx/licenses/lic   and in there you will find file with the 
name the same as the key. Remove this file.

This will remove it from the display but there is still a license 
database that contains the old keys. The database can notr be cleared or 
removed.
