10.42 Is there a way to determine what the user license level is on a HP 3000? If we purchase a user level license upgrade, what is done to the machine?

:SHOWVAR HPUSERLIMIT
HPUSERLIMIT = -1

will show the current user license level (-1 means unlimited). This value should be checked after any processor hardware changes since otherwise you will not know if you have a problem until your users start signing on in force.

A HP CE must be scheduled to come in and actually perform the "upgrade" to the user license. This is a 10-minute job during which the CE updates the system firmware to the new license.
