J.T. & Gary, I guess our server team enabled "NIC Teaming". Once this was disabled we restarted the services and the system came back clean.
Thank you both very much! I owe you both a drink if you are ever up in Boston!

That is, does it have multiple network cards? If so it may have picked up the wrong card and now your server has a different Host ID. You can verify this by going into the add licenses screen and trying to add a new license. Verify the host ID matches the existing licenses. If not, that is your cause. I may have some suggestions from there. --- J.T.

We lost some network connectivity in our datacenter due a software bug last night and our network team needed "applied a code upgrade to the core devices". Once the network crashed we recieved the following entries in the arerror.log, "Wed Apr 09 20:12:40 2008 [DBNETLIB][ConnectionRead (recv ()).]General network error. Check your network documentation. (SQL Server 11) Wed Apr 09 20:13:59 2008 390635 : Failure while trying to connect to the SQL database. Please ensure the SQL database is running or contact the Database Administrator for help (ARERR 550) Wed Apr 09 20:13:59 2008 Wed Apr 09 20:13:59 2008 390635 : Cannot initialize contact with SQL database (ARERR 551) Wed Apr 09 20:13:59 2008 Stop server Wed Apr 09 20:13:59 2008 390635 : AR System server terminated -- fatal error encountered (ARNOTE 21) Wed Apr 09 20:14:01 2008 390600 : This version of the Action Request System (R) is ready for use or evaluation without purchasing or activating an authorization key. For unlimited capabilities, contact your sales representative. (ARNOTE 27)" We can log into our system but we get licensing error messages when trying to select any of the application consoles, "The application is not licensed : BMC:Atrium CMDB (ARERR 9858) The preceding message occurred during the execution of active link CHG:SHR:Set_DatasetName_Default -- action 1. (ARNOTE 1101)". I've tried removing the multilicense file but that didn't help. We are running AR applications v 7.0.01 patch 006 in a windows shop, Server 2003 SQL 2005. The application and database are on seporate servers. I've logged a call with BMC support, but it's been an hour and half with no update.
