I took the UD200 admin class a while back, and you could just do a "kill -1 smm_pid" and it would recognize the changes in licence availability .. This would also reset the MAX.USER count if you happend to set it to "0" to stop logins .. The class was probably on UD 6, so I'm not sure if it works on 5.x ..

It certainly is nice to avoid the headaches a restart. My only comment is that if this handy way to bypass a restart has been around since 5.0.1, which I believe was GA in 2000, it should have it made it into the documentation by now, namely "Installing and Licensing UniData 6.1 Products". We skipped version 5.0, going from 4.1 to 5.2, so we never saw that readme.
