If you do not have a license to use the RAMP tools you need to:
· Obtain a RAMP license from LANSA.
· Input the license code on your System i server using the LANSA REQUEST(LICENSE) command followed by the Insert a Permanent License Code menu option. Key in the License Type (AXX or Ann) and the License Code assigned to you by LANSA and press Enter. This method of license installation is the same as for all other licensed LANSA products.
