Activation
DBAPI binds with hardware, a license required on each server
Get the serial number
DBAPI automatically exits on the first start and the serial number is printed at the end of the log file before exit. So you must start it once to get the serial number.
For standalone mode deployment, get the serial number at the end of the
logs/dbapi-standalone.logfile. For cluster deployment, get the serial number at the end of thelogs/dbapi-apiServer.logfile for each server
