Changing the enforcement policy

Use the Change License window of the License Center notebook to change the enforcement policy on an installed DB2 product. There are two types of enforcement polices, called hard stop and soft stop. A hard-stop policy prevents license infractions; only the specified registered users and number of concurrent users can use the product. A soft-stop policy logs license infractions, but does not limit product use.
