Chris, Odd that you would get the warning and then get what looks like the license was entered ok. My comments are based on 7.0.1 and earlier versions. I always add the license through the admin tool which I don't think is an option with 7.1 unless you change registry settings that some one posted a few weeks ago. I have seen that warning message before and it resulted from one of two things. First the date needs to match. Also with servers on 7.0.1 and previous you needed to check the MultiServer check box. It was one I overlooked on occasion. Cycle the server and check the arerror log file. If the license didn't take you should see the following line For unlimited capabilities, contact your sales representative. (ARNOTE 27) Also something else I've come across is when you purge the license you will be assigned a new license but it will have the same server id. This can cause an issue if you have the other server on line. When you try to login to the second one with the admin tool, you will get an error message that you have two servers running with the same server id and one needs to be shut down. You need to get a temporary license if you want to have bother running at the same time. Dave

We want to take a license off our current dev server and put one on a brand new server that we are doing a fresh installation on. I did a purge request where I supplied the old license key and the new host ID. I got a new key via email fairly quickly, but when I applied it I got the warning "ARWARN [469] Warning, this key is not valid for this server. The preceding message occurred during the execution of active link AR System Licenses Console:Update License -- action 1. (ARNOTE 1101)" After clicking OK the normal "BMC Software herby grants..." popup appeared. Our old license was for 6.3, and we are doing an install now of 7.1. We are on RHEL 5 and DB is Oracle 10g. There is no upgrade going on, everything is a fresh out of the box install. Thanks for any help with this!
