Updating RQM License When Trial Has Expired
![](http://jazz.net/_images/myphoto/8d65603df27f6d3d6465559778dc4cde.jpg)
Hi there,
Upon realizing that my trial license for my RQM had expired, I went on the Rational Licensing site and downloaded a permanent license. When I accessed the RQM Jazz Admin Console, I went to the License Management Section, but was unable to update my version of RQM with the new license as the hyperlink to add the license was not working.
I then tried to do this via the RQM Jazz Setup console, but it said that DB2 was not an accepted database type for the RQM Jazz setup.
Help

Can you show us a screen shot of https://<RQM>:<port>/jazz/admin#action=com.ibm.team.repository.admin.manageLicenses ?
This is the part I am confused about:
was unable to update my version of RQM with the new license as the hyperlink to add the license was not working.You are in the right place, but this doesn't make sense. Ordinarily you should be able to import the permanent server activation key (the JAR file you downloaded from the Rational Licensing site) here.
