Win2K3 - SQL 2005 - Cluster - sap license error

[Former Member]

Hello to all,

We have our PRD server with Win2K3 - SQL 2005 and is clustered for HA. All resources are on the first node (DB). All users can login without any problem when resources are on first node (i.e. DB).

Now when we move all the cluster resource from first node (DB) to the second node (CI), users are not able to login and get error - "Logon not possible (error in license check)"

Can someone please guide on this.

Thanks in advance,

Kalpesh.

Hi

You have to apply 2 licences in service market place for 2 nodes(node1 and node2). Apply the licences individually.

You need to request two license keys, one for each node.

Hi,

Thanks for reply.

Since it is clustered and all resource are on DB server the - usr directory is on DB too. The saplicense.exe file is at "G:\usr\sap\PRD\SYS\exe\uc\NTI386" location. (G drive is on SAN).

Can i just copy the saplicense file to CI and run the command ?

Also before that i tried to run the "saplicense -show" command from the above mentioned location on the DB server which is active and running, i am getting the below result (error),

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

G:\usr\sap\PRD\SYS\exe\uc\NTI386>saplicense -show

• SAPLICENSE (Release 700) ERROR ***

For cluster system you have different hardwares. so your hardware key might be different. Please apply for new license key in SMP with the hardware key.License Type will be standard
