run on that platform.

You may find this informative; it covers how the hostid is generated
and where it comes from:

**  Hi,

On Solaris, you can obtain the HostID checked by the licence with the
following procedure :
* execute the hostid command.
* the result of this command is in hexadecimal format.
* convert this result into a decimal format.

Cheers,

Vincent.

I wanted to inquire about the use of the MAC address by Remedy on Solaris.
Does anyone now if the MAC address is used in any communications or licenses
check?

On Solaris, Remedy uses the hostid as returned by gethostid(3C) for
licensing purposes.
