You will use your Customer ID to generate a Product Activation Request. When you purchase your DirXML product, Novell will send an e-mail to your company's primary contact (the person who purchased the product license) that includes a customer ID.
NetWare 6.5 customers will receive their customer ID as outlined in the following table:
If
Then
You purchased a new license or upgraded an existing license directly from Novell or through a Novell license program such as an MLA license
Novell will e-mail your customer ID to your company's primary contact.
You do not have any licensing agreement with Novell and you purchased the physical product from a distributor or retailer
The customer ID is on a printed card inside the product package.
If you do not remember or do not receive your Customer ID, please call the Novell Activation Center at 1-800-418-8373 in the U.S. In all other locations, call 1-801-861-8373. (If applicable, you will be charged long distance fees for calls made using the 801 area code.) You can also chat with us online.
NOTE: The individual who purchases the product license will receive an e-mail containing the Customer ID. If your company uses its purchasing agent to handle this transaction, you might need to check with this individual to obtain your Customer ID.
You should create a Driver Set object before you generate a Product Activation Request to activate DirXML.
Launch iManager by going to http://serveripaddress/nps/iManager.html.
Click DirXML Management > Activation Request.
Browse to the driver set that you want to activate > click Next.
NOTE: If the driver set is not associated with a server or is associated with multiple servers, you will be prompted to select a server to associate with a driver set.
Enter your Novell Customer ID, then click Next to build your Activation Request file.
Your customer ID and identifying information about the server's tree are stored in the Product Activation Request.
