Verifying HCL Local License Server installation

After you have installed HCL Local License Server (LLS), you must verify the installation to ensure that the LLS is reachable.

Verify LLS installation by using any of the following methods:

Check LLS health by using the following GET API request:
```
https://FQDNhostname:LLSport/v1/health
```
An example response is displayed as follows:
```
{
    "status": "Active",
    "uptime": "42 hours, 22 minutes, 2 seconds",
    "timestamp": "2024-12-20 06:41:50"
}
```
Check that the LLS service is running.
- On Windows, open the Windows Services (service.msc).
- On Linux, enter the following command:
```
systemctl status HCL-Local-License-Server-5.1.service
```

You can also check that LLS can retrieve additional information:

By opening the https://FQDNhostname:LLSport/v1/licensepools/poolID URL from a web browser on Windows.
On Linux, enter the following command:
```
curl --cacert /path/to/your/certificate.crt https://FQDNhostname:LLSport/v1/licensepools/poolID
```
Here, the FQDNhostname is FQDN of your LLS host machine, LLSport is the port number you specified at the time of fingerprint generation, and poolID is the unique ID of the deployment you want to use.
You can find the pool ID in the installed_directory/logs/hcl_lls_pools.log file or by using the following API endpoint:
```
https://FQDNhostname:LLSport/v1/licensepools
```
