# Vendor License Mapping

1. Open product-mapping in the Configuration directory, which is by default in C:\Program Files\OpeniT\Core\Configuration.

   Notice that it contains instructions on how to edit the file.

2. Specify products to combine with the following syntax:

   MAP: <Combined_Product_Name>     
   <ProductName_1>       
   <ProductName_2>

   Empty lines are allowed — any line beginning with # as the first non-white character is considered a comment. Globbing is also supported.

   Example

   MAP: CombinedProduct    
   Product032
   Product052

   This example combines the usage of Product032 and Product052 and will be gathered through CombinedProduct.

3. Save the changes.

This mapping file allows excluding specific products to match general rules for mapping inclusion. It almost has the same behavior as regular mapping except for the following points:

• It uses ADVMAP as keyword.
• It uses a + (plus sign) for inclusions.
• It uses a - (minus sign) for exclusions.

ADVMAP: Product_Combined
+*;licsrv
-server01_legacy;licsrv

This example triggers the processing to include all products starting with anything and ending with licsrv, and exclude the specific product server01_legacy;licsrv.

The ADVMAP keyword is required to indicate that the entry is for advance mapping. It is recommended to start the entries with the most general match rule followed with the most specific match rules since entries are evaluated from bottom to top.

1. Open product-mapping in the etc directory, which is by default in /var/opt/openit/etc.

   Notice that it contains instructions on how to edit the file.
