Checking the expiration date for DCI license key

Products

• Dynamic Capacity Intelligence

Issue/Introduction

Is there any way to check what is the expiration date for the license key (LMPKEY) for CA Dynamic Capacity Intelligence (DCI)?

Environment

Release : 2.0

Component : CA DYNAMIC CAPACITY INTELLIGENCE

Resolution

To quickly check the expiration date for the DCI license key (the one with PROD(CM)), you can run the following JCL on the LPAR where the DCI Controller is running:

//yourjob JOB .....
//CAIRIMU EXEC PGM=CAIRIMU,PARM='PROD(CM)'          
//*STEPLIB DD DISP=SHR,DSN=common.services.hlq.CAW0LOAD 

The CAW0LOAD library could be on your linklist, so the job should work as is.
If that library is not in linklist, ask your MVS System programmer for its DSNAME, add to the STEPLIB card, uncomment it and submit the job to execute on the LPAR where DCI is running.

At the beginning of the joblog (JESMSGLG) you'll find two messages like the following:

CAS9087I    Prod (CM) viols|warns/stat(000/N) Warnstart(Sun, 08-Dec-2024)
CAS9088I     Expiry1(Wed, 08-Jan-2025) Expiry2(Fri, 07-Feb-2025)         

Expiry1 is the actual expiration date for the key.
