Thank you, logic makes sense...

On TSM 4.1.x it does not work but tested it on 5.1.5 and it works!  I will have 
to do the Nodelock option for that server.

Have a great Day!

I've found that you can indeed delete licenses by setting the number
of licenses to zero (I think you must be fairly current with your
server, mine are at v5.1.6.3):

register license file=./library.lic number=0

removes all of the library entries. Similarly,

register license file=./mgsyslan.lic number=0

removes all of the clients. Note that you can also *lower*
the number of licenses. If you are licensed for 2,000 clients,
you can reduce that license to 1,000 clients:

register license file=./mgsyslan.lic number=1000
