how to verify a license number for mirror (HP-UX 11.0)

How can I check my licence number for a B2491BA product (soft for mirror?). Really I don't see any B2491BA product (!) via a switch -l but I have already a mirror disks working well for 14 months.
I have a 9000/800/L1500-5x with HP-UX 11.0

(Sorry but the HP licence police is always a nightmare for me :-( )
Thank you very much for your cooperation. It is appreciated.

This command should show if you have MirrorDisk/UX installed:

# swlist
# swlist | grep B2491BA

Again, if you want to see the codewords (license numbers) given to you by HP for installing the addtional software packacges (including MirrorDisk/UX), look at this file:

/var/adm/sw/.codewords.

Also, if you have a valid support contract with HP, you can call them and ask for a hard copy.

A simple swlist should display the installed products ---- unless /var/adm/sw has been corrupted usually via a rm.

Look in the /var/adm/sw/.codewords file; yoiu should have a "Customer ID" and "Codeword" there which HP can verify.
If it ain't broke, I can fix that.
