Customer upgraded from Nways123 to Nways V2. The install went well
but customer having problems with license keys. The prompt is for a
ReMon key...customer tried to enter the only key she had, a Suite key,
which failed as would be expected.
I indicated to customer that the ReMon key is a separate key.
I led customer through a "CTRL_C" of this prompt and the install proceed
ed to the panel asking which install to select...trial, suite, etc.
CUstomer chose suite and 1000 nodes. The customer entered the suite key
and proceeded. THe prompt appeared again and the customer entered again.
The install completed OK except got a license error....no license server
Had customer run /var/ifor/i4blt -ls.....no server found.
Had customer run i4cfg -start.....no server found.
Had cucstomer run i4config...proceeded OK until end of configuration
steps, the error message followed:
"Fatal Error........

Contacted development for assistance.

to proceed and always asking customer to call if any problems

Customer called back from "C"ustomer account to remedy license server
problem.
The customer followed the recommendation that I sent for saving the
old /var/ifor/*.dat and *.idx files.
The customer needed guidance on enrolling the licenses.
I had customer check that the license server was running(i4blt -ls)..OK.
I guided customer through the enrollment of her licenses for Suite...
i4blt -a -f /etv/4111038_2_0_N.ecf -R u -T 1000
i4blt -a -f /etc/4111038_2_0.ecf
The licenses are now enrolled properly.
THe customer tried bringing up the NV EUI and the JMAs and no more
license messages appear....problem resolved.
THe customer also mentioned that they are getting many JPM threshold
traps. I explained that the JPM produces these when the objects
monitored vary from 3 or more STD deviations from the baseline taken.
WHile these thresholds are customizable, the customer is not ready to
even utilize JPM and wished to turn it off.
I guided customer through stopping the JPM service(JdmServerProperties.
txt).
Problems resolved...PMR can be closed.
