I was playing with a flightdeck (BMC was still shipping out 7.0.1flightdecks as of 2 weeks ago) and after the upgrade (of just the server) it showed as not licensed (after a restart). I had exported the license file (before the upgrade) and tried to import it back in, with no luck. However when I go back to the orginal flightdeck it is licensed.
I am glad this was not tried at a customer site. hbr On Feb 12, 2008 2:01 AM, Jean weird <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > ** This looks like a new defect.
