Hello,

We are migrating from SUN Solaris 8 to HP UX11.23 Itanium, and Oracle 8 for Oracle 9.
We also plan to use network licenses on two secured servers.
The service pack tools is now SP18 and the porting-set 6.1c.07.06 which is required (at least 05). The commercial function t066 itanium is available.

In this secured environment, there are two servers, but BaaN is running on a “virtual server” connected to one or the other server.

We face now following problem:

When I try to start baan with license6.1 updated, I get the message “i/o error on license server”, when the license6.1 is absent, the demo version is starting.

Is there someone with experience in such a configuration ?
In the solution 82511 there is written: the license key can’t be generated remotely. Is that a clue for our problem ?

Regards

Is the licence Daemon running?
If so, can you interact with it using licmon6.1?

I know that in the windows world - SSA doesn't support virtual servers (because the license daemon cannot get a unique identifier to make sure
it's running on only one machine).

maybe that's the case with HP-UX as well?

Hello,

The :icense damon is not rnning and can't be started.

# cd $BSE/etc
# ./rc.start_licd
Initializing Licence Daemon...

# ps -ef | grep licd
root 4977 4841 0 13:20:19 pts/1 0:00 grep licd
# cat $BSE/lib/licence6.1
fru1apx1
#

If I put our current license server in, the message "not licensed for that platform" (normal).
When the licence6.1 is empty, I can start with demo version.

Regards

Just try

$BSE/bin/licd6.1

And if that doesn't fire up then do

$BSE/bin/licd6.1 -d -d -d

that will print out debugging info.

Dave

So when I run licd6.1:

# licd6.1: can't stat /.brand/.brand6.1
licd6.1: Can't run - Please brand your software

Regards

Ah. there you go then.

Start in Demo mode and license your server.
