Example implementations include a method, apparatus and computer-readable medium of configuring a license for a component configurable with a computer system, comprising storing the component on the computer system. The implementations further include encoding computer system information corresponding to the computer system into a barcode, such as a Quick Response (QR) code. Additionally, the implementations further include displaying the barcode and a license identifier field. Additionally, the implementations further include receiving a license identifier in the license identifier field, wherein the license identifier is based on the barcode. Additionally, the implementations further include decoding the license for the component based on the license identifier.
