Actually the upgrade I did from 3.4 - 4.5 preserved the license keys
that were in the system automatically. I mentioned that last step as a
precaution because when we went from 3.1.1 --> 3.4 all license keys for
dB agents were removed after the upgrade and all of our classes were
disabled.

hers a technote on the issue I had experienced previously

In 3.4 license keys are paper tigers only and not kept on the system.
You
will need NEW LICENSE KEYS!
