ISE SNS-3415-K9 License Issue

Hi All,
We are planning to take ISE SNS-3415-K9 appliance for 2500 wireless end points.
Can you please guide me how to take license? Base lances are really required for wireless end points??
Your early response will be highly appreciated.
Regards,
Satish.

If you are purchasing Wireless license then Base license is not required, it would support the below services
Device onboarding/provisioning
AAA
Guest provisioning
Link encryption policies
Device profiling and feed service
Host posture
Cisco Security Group Access
Integrated vendor MDM support

Meaning of this error (ISE 1.2 on SNS-3415): HARDWARE RNG INTEGRITY CHECK HAS FAILED!

Hi. We recently purchased an ISE 1.2 appliance (SNS-3415 hardware). It installed fine, but I am unable to access the GUI. When I login to the box and run the following command on the CLI
ISE-12-NS-SD-2/admin# show application status ise
I see the following output:
ISE Database listener is running, PID: 7737
ISE Database is running, number of processes: 38
ISE Application Server process is not running.
ISE Profiler DB is running, PID: 9090
ISE M&T Session Database is running, PID: 8959
ISE M&T Log Collector is running, PID: 9294
ISE M&T Log Processor is running, PID: 9376
% ERROR: ISE SERVICES HAVE BEEN DISABLED BECAUSE
% HARDWARE RNG INTEGRITY CHECK HAS FAILED!
Can anyone help me? What can I do to ensure that the hardware RNG integrity check succeeds. Is it a license issue? Is it faulty hardware? Please advise. I would be very greatful.
Thanks in advance.

I worked with a TAC engineer on this and he said one other customer had this issue and the only recourse was reimaging the appliance with the ISE 1.2 ISO image.
I did reboot, restarted services, reset to factory default and none of that worked. It is possible that the issue happened because during setup of the appliance I didn't have network connectivity and went ahead with the setup and configuration of the ISE application anyway. I later had network connectivity but by that time ISE manifested this fault.
Reimaging and ensuring network connectivity during setup the next time around fixed the problem.

ISE 1.2 SNS-3415 NIC Bonding / Teaming

Hello,
I have installed the SNS-3415 with ISE 1.2 and i'm trying to setup redundnacy (Team) nic modes for the authentication requests and not for management purpose.
The tests showed that when the one interface was unpluged everything was lost and nobody from our internal users was able to authenticated by the ISE node.
In contrast when i was unpluged the " second interface " (probably the inactive ) nothing was happened which shows that is a useless interface
My purpose is to connect it to my twins core switches and have a full high availability deployment.
- I have search enough on the WEB but i didn't found any clear and precisely document of saying how this could be achieved.

ISE 1.2 does not support NIC teaming. Especially on appliances. There is a workaround for VM using the ESXi host to team the NICs so that it is transparent to the VM.

Spare parts for SNS-3415

Hi guys,
I saw the HW specs of the 3415.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/vpndevc/ps5712/ps11640/data_sheet_c78-726524.pdf
There is a spare part for the disk and for the power supply. Does anyone has the experience if the ISE software will check for the HW. The SNS server has a hardware raid controller. I want to know if I can use the raid controller just for mirroring for HW redundancy.
The SNS 3415 has two power slots. So i suspose this can be easily done without breaking the 'service' requiremtents for TAC.
regards,
Sander

Hi Ravi,
For the OS disk, I'm pretty sure we will run into problems. Like you said the UNIX distri will check for the HW bases on the system ID (3415 will have only 1 disk like the specs of Cisco). So sure I don't want to run into problems with my service agreement.
But for the PSU it would be a nice to know if I can install this without any issues. Maybe you got the HW in the LABs?
regards,
Sander

Adobe acrobat 9 pro installation/licensing issues

I installed my licensed copy of Acrobat 9 on a new Windows 7 system. Acrobat launched but would not open files and shuts down on attempt. Message is "Licensing for this product has stopped working" with subtext "You cannot use the product at this time. You must repair the problem by uninstalling and then reinstalling this product or contacting your IT administrator or Adobe customer support for help."
I doubt any of you have a solution, so I simply remark on what transpired as a warning and complaint:
1. I went to Adobe databse and found that a patch was provided to correct installations/licensing problems on windows 7. I downloaded it and installed per instructions. It did not resolve the problem.
2. I uninstalled/reinstalled several times. no resolution.
3. I called customer support and was outsourced to someone who knew little and first sent me to a kb article having to do with 'expired licensing' even though I clearly informed them that the message and the fact had nothing to do with expired licenses. They finally referred me to kb405970 on "Licensing has stopped working". I tried all of the applicable solutions (methods 1-6) and none of them worked. Now I will have to wait until tomorrow (though I had pressing work to do today) to contact support again. I fear I will get another outsourced tech who knows little and wastes more of my time. Such is Adobe's way of supporting paid and licensed product users.
I understand and sympathize with Adobe's wishes to protect its products from piracy. However, I expect and paid for a product which works on major and supported operating systems like windows 7. I also understand that if MS or Mac put out a new OS or version, it may require certain adjustments or updates on Adobe's part. What I do not understand (or have patience with) is that 1) Adobe failed to provide a patch that works; 2) that it then sends me to an outsourced customer service tech who didn't have the knowledge to correct the problem and gave me the wrong information to begin with*. What I finally got was the kb article with a series of multi-step instructions for several methods, none of which worked. This is an unprofessional and unethical response to those of us who have paid for our product and expect it to work under reasonable conditions in a supported environment. This is not an acceptable good-faith effort to resolve issues for which Adobe should take full responsibility.
If any of you do happen to have a real solution (or had a similar problem) do let me know....
*The first thing the outsourced tech wished to do was get onto my machine via a remote connection, before anything was tried other than giving them the error message and have them provide me with the wrong information. It became clear that this person had less knowledge than I do (which isn't saying much) and there was no way I was going to permit a clueless techie to crawl around in my machine and fiddle with settings. That is simply asking for trouble. I'm perfectly capable of opening panels and following instructions myself. DC should be the last thing tried; not the first.

Bill, I tried as you suggested - installed every update from 9.1 through 9.3.4. The 'license not working message persists'. The only change was that now Acrobat will not close and must be forced to shut down from the taskbar menu. I appreciate the suggestion though.
Called Adobe (Manila) again, within the hours given on their contact page for installation and licensing issues, and was told "It's Sunday, nobody here can help you". Finally, after an hour of hammering got them to get me a supervisor (their script says to tell the customer there "Is no supervisor available on Sunday" - Finally the "supervisor", Alvin, suggested I need a new serial number and left me on the line while he called someone else to get on. Cameback and informed me that he couldn't get one, I'd have to call Monday (how's that for having solutions?) Result: wasted more time and had more delay on my project.
Conclusion: Adobe has become obsessed and 'piranoic' about piracy and licensing to the extent that they put that first and client/customer needs second (if that). After reading a lot of online 'Adobe Sucks' forums, I'm inclined to believe Adobe is shooting itself in its own foot and is not going to be a reliable method of presentation/document transmission in the future - service and support is an integral part of software and other concerns such as piracy or licensing need to be transparent to legitimate users. Sad that they spend so much time on this, when they need to be fixing real problems. As well, these outsourcing Philipines companies are poor substitutes for good support - they are so scripted and obsessed with regulations over solutions that it is clear that only the most persistent users will get anywhere with them. As a frontline of contact with after-sale clients, they are going to cost Adobe a lot of potential business in the future, whatever their short-term savings. Too bad. Adobe used to be a leader in the market.
Next round: Calling Manila again this am. to be continued...

ORA-20001: The printing engine..Is this related to a BIP licensing issue?

Hello all,
The error "ORA-20001: The printing engine could not be reached because either the URL..." happens in 2 cases:
<pre>
1. When our BIP is down or being bumped
2. As an APEX administrator, in workspace environment settings, the print server is set to OFF.
</pre>
I'm thinking that this is a licensing issue but I need some clarification on what is causing the error, because all we are trying to do is bring up a PDF report that a user can open or save. BIP is not involved at this point. Is it because the report was developed using BIP that APEX needs BIP up? How does APEX even know the report was developed using BIP? Were are using APEX 3.2.1.00.12 and BIP 10.1.3.4.1
The error happens when a user clicks on a PDF icon that calls an "After Submit Process". The following is the code and the report that was created in BIP is loaded into APEX with a "Named Columns (RTF)" layout type.

7. Enabling Network Services in Oracle Database 11g
By default, the ability to interact with network services is disabled in Oracle Database 11g release 1 (11.1). Therefore, if running Oracle Application Express with Oracle Database 11g release 1 (11.1), use the new DBMS_NETWORK_ACL_ADMIN package to grant connect privileges to any host for the FLOWS_030100 database user. Failing to grant these privileges results in issues with PDF/report printing, specifically, you will get the following error message:
ORA-20001: The printing engine could not be reached because either the URL specified is incorrect or a proxy URL needs to be specified.
Follow the steps mentioned in the Oracle Application Express Installation Guide, Enabling Network Services in Oracle Database 11g. Also refer to the troubleshooting section in case you receive an ORA-44416: Invalid ACL error after running the previous script.

REgarding licensing issues involvng 'Computername' and the use of UpperCase4 vs Lowercase Letters

Does any one know if it would cause problems for the Office 365 software license to be displayed as licensed to an ALL CAPS name like 'MY-FAVORITE-PC' but the computer itself shows the computer name to be 'my-favorite-pc"?
If it does, which one should I change? A couple of people here have had this same problem (which usually occurs when they change to using a different PC for their account) I have to Deactivate their Old PC namer and then install the licnse to
their New OC using whatever name it has.
On more than one system, this has resulted in various odd "failure to contact Microsoft server" issues when activating. The problem continues for 7 days and then their copy of Office starts showing reed warning bards and eventually gets totally
unusable.
However, if I uninstall the office, deactivate the license, and reinstall it once again, it install just fine and acts ok but invariably at some point, the same thing occurs.
On one of them I noticed the difference in the case of the letters used in the computer name and the license name. On others I am wondering about various software add ins for Outlook or some other 3rd part application causing the problem. Whatever
it is, it gets extremely annoying. Officer 365 apparently must run an activation sequence almost constantly while Office 2010 (and I presume 2013) ran it once and were done with it.
Searching Google I have found too many possible reasons along with a lot of people who have had the same problems but no one seems to have the 100% solution. This has only started happening since we switched to Office 365 and only
seems to occur on systems that are changed out to different ones with the same User's 365 Account which is in good standing and has 5 available licenses of which only one is in use.
In the case of the caps vs lowercase I also wonder if changing the name to CAPS on their PC would create additional problems on its own?

Hi Questorfla,
For the Office 365 software license issue, I recommend you can post in dedicated Office 365 Forum to get a better response:
http://community.office365.com/en-us/f/148.aspx
If there is anything else regarding this issue, please feel free to post back.
Best Regards,
Anna Wang

Have the Adobe Muse CC (2014) licensing issues been resolved?

Have the Adobe Muse CC (2014) licensing issues been resolved?
I am patiently waiting for some word on whether I can go ahead a install the new version of Muse CC (2014) software on my systems without running into the quagmire that so many are experiencing. I simply can't afford to run the risk that I will be stuck with a "trial version" for the next 30 days without some assurance from Adobe that they will be able to solve the problems in that time frame. It would be nice if adobe would send out an email that explains the situation to all of it's users so we know what's going on and when the issue is resolved. Collectively we all pay a lot money for these "updates", so I don't think it's to much to ask.
Kind Regards,
wrgould
PS: Please reference this forum discussion - Muse CC 2014 wants Serial Number, though i pay monthly for muse

Acrobat 9 - Upgrade Computer OS from Windows XP to 7 - Licensing Issues?

I have a Lenovo laptop that came with Win XP and Acrobat 9 Standard pre-installed, but they gave me the Acrobat installation CD with product key on the back. So after I wipe the HD and insall a new OEM version of Win7 SP1, can I simply install Acrobat from the old CD using the product key, or will I have licensing issues from the re-installation? -- JClarkW

>>The only issue might be if there had been an activation and you did not deactivate it first.<<
I'm sure I would have activated it, to get updates if nothing else, but how do I tell? If so, how do I deactivate it before the OS replacement? -- JClarkW

Please clarify the following license issue

Hello
Please clarify the following license issue
Oracle 10g se license requirement while using a power 6 P520 machine with 2-core 4.2 GHz processor card,4 memory DIMM slots. Are we entitled for paying for one oracle 10g SE license?
many thanks in advance

When you read through that thread, did you see where I linked to and quoted the licensing definitions
Processor: shall be defined as all processors where the Oracle programs are installed and/or running. Programs licensed on a processor basis may be accessed by your internal users (including agents and contractors) and by your third party users. For the purpose of counting the number of processors which require licensing for a Sun UltraSPARC T1 processor with 4, 6 or 8 cores at 1.0 gigahertz or 8 cores at 1.2 gigahertz for only those servers specified on the Sun Server Table which can be accessed at http://oracle.com/contracts , “n” cores shall be determined by multiplying the total number of cores by a factor of .25. For the purposes of counting the number of processors which require licensing for AMD and Intel multicore chips, “n” cores shall be determined by multiplying the total number of cores by a factor of .50. For the purposes of counting the number of processors which require licensing for all hardware platforms not otherwise specified in this section, a multicore chip with "n" cores shall be determined by multiplying "n" cores by a factor of .75. All cores on all multicore chips for each licensed program for each factor listed below are to be aggregated before multiplying by the appropriate factor and all fractions of a number are to be rounded up to the next whole number. When licensing Oracle programs with Standard Edition One or Standard Edition in the product name, a processor is counted equivalent to a socket.
It appears that you fall under the "not otherwise specified" category because you're not dealing with an UltraSPARC T1 (multiplier 0.25) or an AMD/ Intel chip (multiplier 0.5) so your multiplier would be 0.75.
0.75 * 2 cores = 1.5 processors which would have to be rounded up to 2 processors. If you had 4 total cores, you would only need a 3 processor license.

9.3.0.1 Permanent Licensing Issue

I am trying to use an old VMware image that contains Planning 9.3.0.1, but I am having licensing issues.
Steps taken already
1) I went to http://licensecodes.oracle.com/downloads/HS9_MasterLicenseFile.zip and download the new license file.
2) Then went to the license manager (LMtools.exe) and was successful starting and stopping the license server and re-reading the license.
3) Then went to the Configuration Utility and Activated the Product to change the Deployment ID to "Temp-0004" within System 9 BI+, Analytical Services, Financial Management and Planning.
Where I see the errors
1) In my debugging of the issue, I tried starting the Hyperion Planning via command line. Planning starts up fine but no longer accepts the requests.
Error Text: "CLS0000017 No unexpired licenses are available for your product. No further requests to the server will be processed."
2) Also within workspace when I go from Navigate -> Application -> Planning -> PlanApp1 I receive the follow error when I try to login.
Error Text: "A problem with Hyperion System 9 Planning license was encountered. Please see the log for details."
Any suggestions?

T440S to T440s - program and data transfer, OS licensing issue

Hi,
Obviously not able to open these critters up. I have a new T440s that I would like to transfer my programs and data to. Is there a program out there that can do this without having to pull out the hard drive to image?
My current one has Windows 8.1. The new one has Windows 7 with the Windows 8.1 recovery discs. Issue is, I believe that the Windows license is tied to the hardware? Therefore I would have to make a recovery disc set of Windows 7.....then use the Windows 8.1 recovery discs then move my programs and data over.
Windows Easy Transfer does not look like it can do the best job.
I thought about bringing it to the store for them to swap the drives but then worried alot about the whole licensing issue. (not to mention the possible loss of my warranty) Unless if it is done professional and the license could be stripped out of the existing drive and new drive moved to new machine....perhaps a way to get the license keys from the new system somehow.
Thanks in advance.

Hello.
If you look at the bottom of the machines, and they both have the Windows 8 sticker, your machines are licenced and the product key is embedded in the BIOS.
You can use this program: ProduKey to view and write down your keys, but if you use either the Recovery disks or a WIndows 8 Pro retail DVD to reinstall Windows, your key will be picked up automatically by the installation.
For migration of your files, programs and settings, you could simply clone your current WIndows 8.1 installation onto the new drive using, assuming your installation is UEFI and thus your HD is GPT partitioned, Macrium Reflect, which many users here have had a good experience with. That would save you time from having to reinstall Windows on the new machine as well and all you'd have to do is to enter the embedded Windows key of your new machine to activate it.
Macrium Reflect
That's at least one suggestion, but there are many ways to go about this.
Hope this helps.
Cheers!

Licensing issue by using Applications AC and PC

Hi,
The SAP GRC 10.0 solution comes as bundled solution for AC, PC and RM. While downloading the SAP GRC 10.0 all the three components are downloaded but in a dormant state.
With the release of GRC 10.0, Access Control and Process Control are offered as an integrated solution, both at the data layer and at the user interface layer. This new unified platform enables increased harmonization of key master data.
GRC 10.0 is a harmonized platform. Although maintenance of data within AC and PC is similar in 10.0 as it was in previous releases, there are some key differences. The following master data is shared between AC and PC for the release 10.0 integration scenario.
u2022 Organizations
u2022 Business Processes
u2022 Business Subprocesses
u2022 Controls
SAP GRC System Add-ons:
Access Control, Process Control and Risk Management are contained in one ABAP add-on u201CGRCFND_Au201D
SAP Backend System Plug-ins:
A. GRCPINW: NW Function Modules hold the AC functions for ERP systems without HR (former non-HR RTA)
B. GRCPIERP: PC relevant features are contained in the plug-in GRCPIERP, for example, for running automated controls and the HR relevant functions for AC (former HR RTA)
There are multiple activation points for AC, PC and RM:
u2022 SAP GRC SPRO -> activate the Application. However
u2022 When we go for the Plug-ins (GRCPIERP) installation in backend systems with HR function module it also brings in the PC relevant features.
u2022 Mitigating Control definition based on Organizations
I had activated the Application AC and PC for some time assuming that PC is required to create the Mitigation Control and Organizations. However I just realized that Mitigating Control and Organization can be created even without Activating PC, which does nothing but removes the additional features of PC.
My Query:
u2022 Kindly let me know if I can still use PC to create and assign Mitigating Control as a shared resource for AC and PC or I have violated Licensing issue by using Applications AC and PC when I am supposed to use just Access Control.
u2022 How is shared resources in SAP GRC 10 dealt in terms of Licensing of Applications in SAP GRC 10.
Thanking you in advance.

all the new pc's we've purchased for a time now, don't have a Win7 CoA product key attached, even though they come with Win7 downgrade rights, so your strategy to use the CoA pkeys for the Win7 install on the new machines might be flawed.
We don't buy HP, and I'm in Australia, so I'm not sure if this will be the same for you.
Also, the OEM image that you would use to re-deploy/re-image with, may need to be different for varying models (OEMs might include different drivers, or other checks or blockers, in their image and OOBE scripts), and, the embedded OEM "master" product key/certificate
could vary (or not align) across model types/generations.
Ours do have the SLIC table in firmware and the OA markers, and we use VL Win7 Enterprise anyway, so our 40,000 machine fleet means VL and Software Assurance as a part of our EA + Select is an (expensive) no-brainer really.
The other thought I have for you, is the re-imaging rights that are bestowed when you have a VL agreement (and therefore, are not bestowed if you don't have one). Because we do have a VL agreement, I've never dived into how it might be worked if we didn't
have VL.
http://www.microsoft.com/licensing/about-licensing/briefs/reimaging.aspx
http://www.microsoft.com/licensing/about-licensing/briefs/downgrade-rights.aspx
If you do look at a VL agreement, I'm told they start from as few as 5 machines. And, if you purchase new pc's, you have the option to enrol the new pc's into Software
Assurance within 90days of purchase, which I imagine would save you some cost, compared to attaching SA to them at a later time, presumably requiring you to pay full ticket price for that.
I'd recommend you get some advice from an MS reseller, even if only to work out what the various options/costs might be.

I recently received a box unit of Lightroom 4 from US, is there a license issue if I install it in Singapore as I recide in Singapore. Are there any restrictions?

A LR licience allows install on 2 systems as long as the software is only used one at a time.
Adobe has NO restrictions on where the systems are upon which it's software is installed.
