Issue/Introduction
How to determine the license information on Symantec Protection Engine (SPE) Core server only mode installation.
Environment
- Symantec Protection Engine for Cloud Services 8.x and 9.x
- Symantec Protection Engine for NAS 8.x and 9.x
Resolution
User has option to install SPE in Core server only mode. This means there is no user interface and settings need to be configured using command-line interface instead.
As a result, user interface is not available for user to use to determine current license information. Instead, license information can be found under report.xml file.
The default location for report.xml file is as follows:
- For Windows - C:\Program Files\Symantec\Scan Engine\report.xml
- For Linux - /opt/SYMCScan/bin/report.xml
Within the file, the license information is shown under <licenseinformation> section. The expiration dates are in epoch (Unix) format and may need to be converted back to human readable format for understanding. In addition, the epoch time is in GMT, so the converted dates are still under GMT and may need further calculation to revert them to local timezone.
