Had something similar happen a few days ago here too.. In the past when I set up server group licenses, I usually got the floating licenses against all the servers that I wanted with a single phone call to Remedy Support. I now hear that when you request for floating lincenses to be used in a server group, they have to audit that request - it goes to their audit department, and what was once a 15 minute job depending on the number of licenses, has now become a much longer process.. I think it took us nearly a day to get this request processed through their audit before the licenses were issued.

In the process of doing this upgrade we found out that we had to actually install AR Server 7.0.0 Patch 2 first so that the database gets updated properly. Once we got that straightened out I went and started to update my licenses. Now we get to FTS, which we have been using in Version 5 and paying for all along. Because the key name is changed I created a ticket online to purge the old license and get a new license. Never got an email after more then 3 hours. Call up support and after 20 minutes I'm told that my support rep has to approve this? I got the manager on the phone for that group and he's telling me that this is how it works for this. I tried to explain to him that if I was doing this on a production machine on a weekend that I can't wait for a sales rep to approve such a thing. Seems kinda ridiculous that I would need approval to upgrade a key that I have been paying support for, for the whole time we've had our system running. Has anyone encountered this with FTS or any other Apps ? What has been the experiences with this ? Does anyone think that this is a reasonable thing ? Thanks J. Frank Cortes -- J.
