MSCS Installation; Having problem generating temp. license key

<b>Environment:</b>
SAP ECC 6.0 (MSCS) installation.
Windows 2003 Server Enterprise Edition (64 bit Itanium)
SQL 2005
We are having a problem with the Central Instance Installation Step at
the point where you must generate a license key using Solution Manager.
The installation does not accept any key generated by Solution Manager
using the virtual host name (SAPCIGRP) - the virtual host name for the
SAP Cluster Group.
We greatly appreciate help on this issue so we can finish up
installation.
<b>Steps for the Reconstruction </b>
MSCS Installation ERP 2005 ABAP+Java (ECC 6.0)
Central Instance Installation Step (Step 8 Installation Guide):
The Installation asks for Solution Manager License Key.
In Solution Manager we created the PRD System (SMSY), then select the
system and select the button "Generate Installation/Upgrade key".
We enter the following:
System ID: PRD
System Number: 02 (also tried 00,01 with no luck)
Message Server: SAPCIGRP
[host names for PRD:
Node A: sapprdci
Node B: sapprddb
SAP Cluster Group: sapcigrp (virtual host name)
SQL Cluster Group: sapdbgrp (virtual host name)]
The installation also asks for instance number (port) for the central
instance; we are entering "02". ASCS (Central Services for ABAP)
is "00" & SCS (Cental Services Instance) is "01".
Thanks,
Patrick

Hi,
You probably want to look two things here:
1. Maybe some problem with the system number, I had the same problem before. I thought I should use system number 00, but it was ended up take system number 01. I still don't know why. The installation completed with my system number be 01 instead of 00 I wanted to be.
2. Because of MSCS installation, does it want to real hostname of the node you are installing or it requires virtual name. I am wondering it is asking hostname of the current node because you should convert it to MSCS cluster after installation complete. Now it does not even know MSCS and virtual hostname etc exist yet.
Thanks,

  • Problem with obtaining license key#

    I purchased the Adobe CS6 Design & Web Premium package with a student discount on Amazon.  I was told that I had to download the trial package until I receive an email with my license key.  How long does that take?
    There is a number that looks like a license key inside the package, however, it does not have enough numbers and was rejected.  Who do I need to contact about this?

  • Problem in generating Permanent License key for Solution Manager

    Hello Friends,
    I am not a BASIS person, but am asked to do that job and so having some issues.
    I have installed Solution Manager and was using it using templicense. However, it expired few days back and am trying to generate the permanent one.
    I can't log in with the administrator user name that I had created, since it gives 'logon not possible (error in license check)'.
    So I logged in as 'sap*' and gave transaction code 'SLICENSE' .
    Here the system number field says 'System No.Empty'.
    Also, when I click on Remote Hardware Key 'Debtermine' button, it says I have to log in as administrator. But I can't log in as administrator since it gives the above mentioned license error.
    I would appreciate if some one can please let me know how to fix this issue.
    Thanks a lot
    Ram

    Hi Manoj
    Thanks for the Response. However to do that it will ask for 'Remote hardware key' and that is the problem that I am having, which is I can't get that since the license is expired.
    Thanks

  • Having problems with EXPOSE (F3 Key)

    So until today when i used to press the F3 key, expose would "shrink" all of my open windows and allow me to click the one i wanted to bring back up.
    Now when I press F3 it just dims the screen down and brings up the dock from hiding.
    How do i set it to what it was before?

    i have been having this problem since i got my macbook a year ago. i use the four finger swipe down, but it has the same lack of effect. nobody has ever addressed this before as far as i have seen. no matter how many windows i have open, the top one just recedes slightly and the rest stay hidden. the screen also dims around the edges creating a sort of tunnel vision. it only seems to happen when my computer has been on for a while, so it could be a not having enough free memory thing. i would love an answer to this because it is the only annoying thing i have found with my macbook so far, but it does get very annoying.

  • FYI Adobe servers having problems generating serials

    Just had to call CS as the email receipt read "call customer support" instead of a serial number, when called they told me it can take up to 24 hrs to arrive via email.

    It took them 20 minutes on the phone  with me to finally tell me that the serial number would take between 24 and 48 hours. I had to send them screen shots and such just to prove that I was actually not a complete idiot.  Meanwhile they kept asking me the same questions over and over again, not writing anything down.  And they didn't even realize that LR 3 was even shipping.  And I am the idiot here who does not know how to look at a screen where my serial number is?   They also indicated to me at the end of the conversation that this is "normal" to take 24-48 hours and that they are not having any issues.
    The good news is that you can install the product and use it for 30 days before it requires you to enter a serial number.

  • About license key

    I am having problems with the license key.
    in my kodo.properties file I have

    Can you please help me with this?

    What version of Kodo are you using? If you're using a recent version of
    Kodo (3.0.0 or greater) then the correct property name is:
    kodo.LicenseKey
    See:
    http://www.solarmetric.com/Software/Documentation/3.1.3/docs/ref_guide_conf_kodo.html#kodo.LicenseKey
    If you're using a version of Kodo older than 3.0.0, then the correct
    property name is:
    com.solarmetric.kodo.LicenseKey
    Please see:

    I have almost resolved this problem. I'm at the last step and getting an error message when trying to import the certificate that I received from verisign into my keystore.
    here's my error.
    C:\>keytool -import -alias mycompanyname123 -keystore STEPHEN4 -file mycompanyname.cer
    Enter keystore password: changeit
    keytool error: java.security.cert.CertificateException: Unsupported encoding
    but when I double click on this file mycompanyname.cer (which is exactly what I received from verisign, up comes the appropriate certificate
    i was able to succesfully able to install it into the microsoft browser and i see it correctly represented and displayed in the certificates section for OTHER PEOPLE.
    But I think i have to successfully import it into the keystore for it to work properly right when I start up the tomcaat app is that correct?
    any ideas?

  • Installing Sybase SQL Anywhere license keys after initial installation.

    Hi,
    I installed Sybase SQL Anywhere 16 before I actually received the valid License Key. So during the installation I've used the license key provided by the instructions.  Afterwards, I've received the purchase license key.  Do i need to reinstall SQL Anywhere all over?  Or can it just continue to function on that license key?  From what i understand, I can not change the license key after the installation was complete.  I would have to completely uninstall and re-install SQL Anywhere 16. Is that correct?
    Thanks
    Aron

    Hi Aron,
    I would have to completely uninstall and re-install SQL Anywhere 16. Is that correct?
    No, you don't have to do this in SQL Anywhere 16 - you can change SQL Anywhere editions by changing the license key on the accompanying server executable license file (e.g. dbsrv16.lic) with the Server Licensing Utility (dblic). You can use the "-k" switch in order to specify a new key:
    dblic -k <reg_key> dbsrv16.lic

  • SAP License key

    Dear All,
    We have an issue with system number in our production system.
    We have generated SAP license key for production during our SAP implimentations. But after that due to some major problem we have again reinstall SAP system and regenerate SAP License key. Now both the SAP License key has different system number. Old one license key we have deleted from SAP Supprt portal.
    How can change the system number in my landscap as per the registered with SAP Support portal.
    Can I delete existing license from my SAP System and reinstall latest downloded key ?
    Thanks in advance,
    Nirav

    Well you should have ordered the new license under the same system.
    Can I delete existing license from my SAP System and reinstall latest downloded key ?
    Yes, that is what you have to do now. If your installation number changed, then you will have to delete the old licenses first. Then you will be able to install the new license.
    Cheers Michael

  • License Key Request from SOLMAN VS SMP for SAP ECC 6.0 EPH4 IDES install

    Hi, SDN fellows.
    I have some doubt on the right way/options to request License Key for SAP ECC 6.0 EPH4 IDES.
    Previously, I read that the only way to get license key is to generate it through SAP Solution Manager. If this is the only way, we will have to install Solution Manager just to generate the license  key (we are currently don't have SolMan running in our landscape).
    I also read that I can request license key through http://service.sap.com/licensekey. I checked the link and see that we have the 10 digits installation number for Product: SAP ERP.. Currently there is no system defined for this installation number.
    I went through the first two screens, seems like they have options for SAP ERP 6 --> IDES.
    If I can get a license key from http://service.sap.com/licensekey, do I still need to install Sol. Man. to generate the license key?
    What are the difference the license key generated from Sol. Man. VS the one we request from SMP?
    Thanks,
    KC

    Hi, Vishnu.
    So, now I understand I need two keys: Solution Key and also License key.
    I should obtain Solman key before I start installation , as the SAPinst will ask to enter Solman key before it can proceed to install SAP ECC IDES.
    You said I can obtain Solman key through OSS note. I went in to SMP just now. Navigated to Help& Support --> Report a Product Error --> New Problem Solving Request.
    I selected Customer Number, Product, Instillation # , and enter  * for  System ID. The search result returned no system found. The problem here is we don't really have any system ID defined for SAP ERP IDES since we haven't start installing the system.
    Is that true that I will only see the System ID in OSS Message interface when I submit the System ID for the license key?
    I thought this is a post-installation step to apply for a license key. If I can to do it before the installation, how can I get the 11 character hardware key before installation (assuming I cannot run the SLICENSE TCode and saplikey u2013get command)?
    OR how can I create OSS message to request SolMan key when I don't have a system ID (that already registered for license key) in SMP?
    OR I should just go ahead to install Solution Manager to generate Solman key (during pre-installation), and request for license key in SMP in post-installation?
    Thanks for advise,
    KC

  • Silent install application with varying license key (not with TS)

    Hi guys
    I want to deploy an application through sccm 2012 r2 with a license key in the command line. So far no problem, with the paramater
    ISX_SERIALNUMBER="XXX" I can handle that. So command line looks like: 
    msiexec /i "XY.msi" ISX_SERIALNUMBER="XXX"
    But here's the problem. That license key changes very often, usually a key can just be used for 2-3 installation. After that I get a new key which I have to use (we have no volume licensing... yes I know... do not ask...).
    I tried to create a machine variable (device - properties - variables) with the license key. but I didn't manage to get the variable in the command line correctly. I tried
    ISX_SERIALNUMBER="%variable%" but it didn't work. I realised that those variables just can be used with a TS. But I really don't want to use a TS for software deployments...
    After that I thought I'll try to get the variable with powershell and it worked. But just with an Administrator account who has access to the server. If i run the script in system context while deploying, it fails...
    Does anyone have another way to deploy Software with a Licence Key as a computer variable? Or any other way to specify a specific Licence key for a specific computer?
    thanks in advance
    p.s. I know I could entering it manually... but that's not an option at this time.

    I used the code in this link to achieve this in the past Worked very well.
    http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?/topic/4853-deploying-software-with-unique-keys/
    Basically you create a database to store your licences and it will update the fields to assign a computer object with the licence. Enter a column for Licences and one for Client. Set both to be type varchar(50) and allow for Null entries.

  • Need a license key....

    downloaded a license key for install and got overun with other projects, came back

    It helps to say what product and version you are working with.

  • Need license key for a software I bought

    I got the Mundu Radio Plus from the App World. I did not get the license key. I contacted the support for the software and they told they can not generate a license key, that this is done by the App World. Please inform how to get this license key. Thanks,

    You shouldn't need a license key if the app was purchased in AppWorld, the license key is part of the "purchase" and should recognize as a paid app.
    If you continue to have problems with this, call your mobile provider tech support and have them escalate this issue to RIM level tech support.

    Paul, a license key is not the same as the requested SolMan Key.
    A License Key is provided by SAP (and will be installed via transaction SLICENSE in case of ABAP Web AS Systems).
    A Solution Manager Key is generated through SAP Solution Manager, transaction SMSY. (SAP Note 811923 -  Generating the SAP Solution Manager key)
    Anyhow, requesting a Solution Manager Key is not appreciated in this forum.
