Optional. PERPET is an optional parameter with no individual fields. The keyword field is the only field on the PERPET parameter.
You can use the PERPET parameter to rollover a perpetual license on the z/OS platform for another year within the three weeks prior to the actual license expiration. To rollover a perpetual license, follow these steps during the three week period prior to the license expiring:
-
Define the PERPET parameter.
-
Run the License Management Report (RUNLMRPT).
-
CODE-1 Plus rolls over the perpetual license for one year to the same end date in the next year.
For example, your perpetual license expires on 12/31/18. You can define the PERPET parameter and run the License Management Report (RUNLMRPT) anytime during the three week period prior to 12/31/18 to rollover your perpetual license for an additional year to 12/31/19.
