Hi Guys,

I have an issue at the moment which is driving us nuts, we have a new
customer on board and their Networker server was configured by someone else
in early decemeber, tru64 v5.1b 3 node cluster. They applied all of the
licenses on the nsr server, but didnt bother to go the extra mile and
authorize them, we received the systems on friday, found the lic's all
expired, so much so even a 'grace' only takes expiry to Dec 30th. Our
online licensing doesnt like the enabler code for the power edition
license, so we cant do it that way. Legato licensing have not responded
with the auth codes all week, and we do have a few local legato contacts
assisting in trying to get it done today, but licensing in the US is closed
for the day....and didnt respond yesterday etc etc....

My query is, with v6 it wasnt too difficult to remove the licenses etc and
get it back to an eval until the license auth codes became available, but
with v7.1 I dont want to try and remove the power edition license in case
the checksums/corruption causes networker to make me have to do the whole
reconfiguration again....anyone got some ideas on how to get ALL the
licenses off the system without losing everything else, all the jukebox
configs, DDS drives, client configs etc etc


Craig.
