Mark,

I know about that; I put them in.  But the query reports that all of them
are in use:

  Number of Managed System for LAN in use: 148
  Number of Managed System for LAN licensed: 148

THAT'S what I'm trying to understand.

Thanks.

148 is the number of licenses that TSM was told to license when it was
installed; whomever installed TSM told the machine that there were 148
client licenses (mgsyslan.lic) available.

Auditing the licenses will not change this number.
