Problems after system copy with license

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I made a system copy from SA1 to SA2. I ran the SAP Tools after the attach of the db and it ran the post processing OK. (At least, no errors.)

However, I cannot logon to this copy of ECC 5. When I try to log on I get an license error. ("error in license check")

When I run saplicense -show NAME=SA2 it returns with an expired license and it also refers to SA1. I requested a new license for SA2, but I cannot install this file. (Error reading license data file.)

So, this SA2 is running now with the old SA1 db. Do I need to request a license for SA1 instead of SA2? The login screen does show SA2 as SID.

Hello ,

Do I need to request a license for SA1 instead of SA2? -No , You have to install valid license for SA2 only .

Try to delete old license from SA2 system which shows existence of SA1 ( Which is not valid or not required also ) .

Please get back to us if you require further details .

I'm not able to delete it. After I enter the product ID (R3_MSS) it tells me that it cannot find the specified license. I tried this with SID SA1 and SA2.

When I do a show it tells me I have a temp license. (Both for SA1 and SA2)

Are you using user : sidadm to execute activity ?

I'm logged on with sisadm to the console yes. So sa2adm.

Can you please update the saplicense`s version .

Best way to update kernel or you can copy the executables from SA1 also .

Hope it will work !
