Abstract
A method, an information handling system (IHS) and a license file generating system for generating a license file. The method includes receiving, via a processor of a first information handling system (IHS), a plurality of input parameters associated with a product and generating license data at least partially based on the input parameters. The license data is transmitted to a hardware security module (HSM). The method further includes triggering the HSM to retrieve a certificate containing allowable use data. The allowable use data at least partially identifies a permitted installation of a license for the product. The HSM is triggered to embed a signer identifier within the certificate and the HSM is triggered to sign the certificate. The method further includes receiving a signed certificate from the HSM and generating a license file including the license data and the signed certificate. The license file is transmitted to a second IHS.
