Frank, are there multiple NIC's in the machine? I 100% agree that the host id should not change on an upgrade, but 8.x and 9.1 use different code bases c/java, so it's possible that Java is making the equivalent call to the OS but getting a different value if there are multiple host ids....the best bet is to re-license with the new host id.
