I found the problem.. It was a mistake on my part.

I did indeed update from the CDROM from 4.1.2 -> 4.2.0 however upon
closer inspection I realize my mistake. I did an "update all" and the
4.2.0 CD includes a new fileset called Tivoli.tsm.license.cert which was
not present in prior versions. As a result of doing an update all, this
fileset didn't get installed. Also I notice Tivoli.tsm.devices.aix43.rte
also didn't get installed.

This is what I was left with after doing an update all with first the
4.2.0 cdrom and then the 4.2.1 upgrade code from tivoli's website:

root@casj01:/temp/tivoli/server_base# lslpp -L | grep tivoli
  tivoli.tsm.client.api.aix43.32bit
  tivoli.tsm.client.api.aix43.64bit
  tivoli.tsm.client.ba.aix43.32bit.base
  tivoli.tsm.client.ba.aix43.32bit.common
  tivoli.tsm.client.books.htm
  tivoli.tsm.client.books.pdf
  tivoli.tsm.client.web.aix43.32bit
  tivoli.tsm.devices.rte     4.1.2.0    C    Tivoli Storage Manager
Device
  tivoli.tsm.license.rte     4.2.0.0    C    Tivoli Storage Manager
License
  tivoli.tsm.msg.en_US.devices
  tivoli.tsm.msg.en_US.server
  tivoli.tsm.msg.en_US.webhelp
  tivoli.tsm.server.com      4.2.1.0    C    Tivoli Storage Manager
Server
  tivoli.tsm.server.rte      4.2.1.0    C    Tivoli Storage Manager
Server
  tivoli.tsm.server.webadmin
root@casj01:/temp/tivoli/server_base# smitty install

To fix the problem I did a smit install (install and update) and
selected the two filesets above. I then did a smit install on the 4.2.1
update to install 4.2.1 of Tivoli.tsm.devices.aix43.rte. After a reboot,
TSM was up and I could then register licenses fine.

Problem solved.. don't use "update all" when installing a base level
release is the lesson learned.
