WCS license migration

Hi all,
I have a situation at a customer place. They have 2 WCS servers with plus licenses, AP capacity 400 and 300 resp.
They have a plan to consolidate the two locations into one and use single WCS server for management. Is it possible to use the license from the WCS server with 300 AP capacity onto the WCS server with 400 AP capacity?
Any help is much appreciated.
Many Thanks
Girish

The license is tied I the WCS hostname. So you would have to open a TAC case with Cisco license to rehost that license to the WCS you want to use. You would need smartnet also.

Hi,
What do you mean by migration? you are migrating to another hardware? or you are upgrading from basic to advanced license?
here is the install/upgrade process:

If you are migrating from one device to another I think you need to use this link:

VCS HW to VM license migration

We recently purchased 4 x LIC-VVCS-E-M-PAK and 4 x LIC-VVCS-C-M-PAK so we could migrate all our call licensing from VCS HW appliances to VMs, however when I go to redeem one of the PAKs I got for the VCS-C, it's only showing the following as available:
LIC-VVCS-C-M-PAK
1
LIC-VCSE-100
1
LIC-VCS-GW
1
Shouldn't it allow me to enter the serial number of a HW applicance to migrate from, then give me the relevant call licenses also? Has anyone else had experience migrating HW licenses to VM who could maybe shed some light on this?

Hello Nick -
Please reference the below discussion, you'll need to email a certain group with Cisco to process the request to rehost the appliance option keys to the VM. I'm sad to say that there isn't any automatic process in the background that does this when one purchases a migration for any product, it's all manual, and done by the customer most of the time.

License Migration for Unified Communications.

Hi guys. I need assistance for migrate the existing licenses for Cisco Unified Communications Manager, Cisco Unity Connection and Cisco Unified Contact Center Express devices to be valid in the new version installed.
The existing versions are:
   * Cisco Unified Communications Manager 5.0
   * Cisco Unity 4.0
   * Cisco Unified Contact Center Express 4.5
The new versions are:
   * Cisco Unified Communications Manager 8.6
   * Cisco Unity Connection 8.6
   * Cisco Unified Contact Center Express 8.5
I tried to use the licensing tools such as "Cisco Licensing" ([email protected]) and "Product License Registration" (https://tools.cisco.com/SWIFT/LicensingUI/lookupLicenseRehost) but I have not obtained satisfactory results.
The Product License Registration requieres the following information but I don't know this:
UDI Product ID:
UDI Serial Number:
Device Credential:
Someone knows what is the best way to migrate licenses for UC applications?
I appreciate any cooperation in this case.
Thanks a lot.
Ernesto Gonzalez

Hi Ernesto,
For UCCX 4.5 to 8.5, as there is no direct path available for upgrade , you need to use an intermediate version 7.0 to restaore the 4.5 data. From UCCX 7.0 with latest SR you have to perfrom one more upgrade to reach the version 8.5.
You can use the ordering guides to get to know about the license migration.

Prime LMS 4.2 to Prime Infrastructure 2.0 license migration

A couple of months ago I upgraded WCS to Prime Infrastructure (WCS via NCS to PI 1.2 at that time). Meanwhile PI is running version 2.0. For some reason, when purchasing the upgrade licenses, I also got a 500 device LMS4.2 upgrade license.
The exact part numbers were:
R-W-PI12-M-K9 WCS 7.0 to Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2 Migration
R-PI12-BASE-K9 Prime Infrastructure 1.2 Base License and Software
L-PI12-LF-500-LIC Prime Infrastructure 1.2 - Lifecycle - 500 Device Lic PAK
L-PILMS42-500-M Prime Infrastructure LMS 4.2 - 500 Device Upgrade Lic
I have a virtual LMS appliance running where I installed the 500 device license I mentioned. I've actually never used LMS but that's a different story...
As I'm running low on PI device licenses (lifecycle licenses to be precise), the question is:
Is there an officially supported scenario to migrate these 500 LMS 4.2 licenses (that are already the result of a license upgrade) to PI 2.0?
If so: what part numbers do I need to purchase? I suppose I need
R-L-PI2X-U-K9 LMS to Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.x Upgrade
plus
(L-L-PI2X-500-U LMS to Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.x Lifecycle Upgrade 500 Device)
XOR
(L-L-PI2X-500-UP LMS to Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.x Lifecycle Upgrade with PASS 500 Device)
Maybe someone can comment on that... thanks in advance.

In case anyone is facing the same issue:
Meanwhile, I finished the upgrade process using the following part numbers:

4400 AP license migration to 5500 - is it possible ?

Hi all,
Can someone please tell if it's possible to use existing AP license number from an old 4404 WLC to a new WLC 5508 ?
I know that the 4404 has hard licensed bounded to the controller, not like the 5508 adder licenses that can be purchased separate, but I cannot find information about this type of migration (from 4404 to 5508).
Thank you.

No, you can't move a license from a 440x to another platform. When you purchase the 5508, you'll need to make sure you purchase the appropriate license size

Wcs license upgrade issue

Dear all,
We have two 4400 controllers which support 50 Access points each and wcs with 100 base license.Now we added 5508 controller supports 50 access points.wcs is upgraded with another 50 ap license.The 5508 controller is joined to wcs and the licence showing permanent.WCS showing all aps and showing both 100 and 50 licence as permanent.
But the issue is while loging into the wcs it showing the error message as"The system is in violation of license.The number of APs registered is greater then licensed."
What might be the reason.Please help me.
Attaching the screen shot.
Thanks in Advance
Bose.

Because your WCS is still licensed for 100 APs ....
There are 2 license level : Base and PLUS.
You had a 100 AP Base license.
You bought a PLUS_UPG license which upgrade 50 out of your 100 AP count to PLUS.
Result : you now have 100 AP licensed on WCS, out of which 50 have the "PLUS" feature set.
You should have ordered a "BASE ap count 50" license. or if you want to go to plus, a "plus_UPG" license but for the 100, and then a plus ap count 50.

VCS\VCSE license migration from hardware to VM.

Hi all,
I want to migrate my VCS\VCSE from hardware to virtual.
Both servers are covered by active maintenance contract.
How does licensing work in this case? What is the transfer procedure?
Any cost involved?
Thank you.

Hi,
Regarding Cisco VCS, in order to migrate from hardware to virtual machine, you will need to purchase a new license to make the transfer. These are the partnumbers you need:
R-VMVCS-C-M-K9
For HW Migration to E-Delivery Virtual VCS Control Only
R-VMVCS-E-M-K9
For HW Migration to E-Delivery Virtual VCS Expressway Only
Please, contact your Cisco representative to get further information.
After you purchase the license, the license rehost from appliance to VM will be made by a specific Cisco team, not the Global License Operation team, this is a different rehost process. You will have to send your request to [email protected], this team will provide all the instruction to rehost your VCS license properly.
I hope this help.

WLC and WCS licenses

How many APs does wireless controller 5508 and WCS (version 7.0) supports?
Cheers,

Sorry for jumping in on the question with another question but it seemed the right place.
I have an AIR-CT5508-25-K9 WLC and +25AP license : L-LIC-CT5508-25A.
As far as I understand it the WLC should already have a 25AP license installed and with the adder license I should have a count of 50 APs.
However, after installing the adder license the count is still 25.
Could you please let me know if it's just something wrong in my reasoning or should a case be opened?
Thank you,
Barbara

WCS License Upgrade

Dear All
I am trying to upgrade a WCS running a plus license f 100 access point. with a base license of additional 50 access point.
the base license is already purchase, is there any workaround to do this?
please check attachment to see the error
Thanks,
Elie

Hi,
If WCS is licensed for the feature type - PLUS, only PLUS licenses can be added.
Whereas the license file you're trying to add is a BASE license which can't be stacked on top of a PLUS license. Hence the error reported by
thus the error.
For ex , WCS-PLUS-50 for plus while WCS-APBASE-50 is for base.

WCS license AP count

Hi guys,
I have one question regarding licensing on WCS.
We have a license for 100 AP-s, and our WCS in on 99% of capacity.
What would happened if we add 1 more AP to WCS (101 total) ?
Will the WCS generate an error, will it delete old added AP-s to make room for new ones?
Tnx

WCS will still work fine. You will get a message when you connect to the server stating that you are over your licensing limit and need to update the license. You will NOT be able to add new controllers until you upgrade the license but you can still add access points.

CUCM license migration

Hi,
One of our customer wants to migrate their 300 essential license to CUWL standard license. But I can't find any option for that. Can anybody advice me how to do it?

BE5000 to BE6000 License Migration

We currently have Business Edition 5000 Version 9.1 installed with 125 CUWL Standard licenses. We do not currently have UCSS or ESW. We are looking to upgrade to BE 6000 Version 10.5. Our supplier has told us that we need to purchase the BE6000 appliance 25 CUWL bundle and purchase 100 new CUWL licenses in addition to a new SWSS(UCSS+ESW) contract. We were originally looking to purchase the ESW contract but this has now been replaced by SWSS. I had originally been told that the CUWL licenses were transferable between Unified Communication applications using a zero cost migration option and that we would not need to purchase new licensing. I understand that this may only be available with active UCSS.
My question is would I be able to purchase SWSS on our existing BE 5000 v9.1 and then obtain a zero cost migration to BE 6000 9.1 and then utilise the SWSS contract to upgrade to 10.5.
Having to purchase new CUWL licensing is increasing the cost by a substantial amount.
Thanks

License migration from Flex Builder 3 to Flex Builder 4

I am ready to purchase a license for Flex Builder but am hesitant to do so. It appears that Flex Builder 3 is available now with Flex Builder 4 coming within some time period. If I buy a Flex Builder 3 license now will I be entitled to Flex Builder 4? If not, should I wait for FB 4 to become available? What is the anticipated ship date of that product?
Neil

From our FAQ
Q: If I purchase Flex Builder 3, am I eligible for an upgrade to Flash Builder 4?
A: Adobe has not yet announced the ship date of Flash Builder 4. To be eligible for a free of charge upgrade to Flash Builder 4, you will need to purchase maintenance along with your purchase of Flex Builder. You can purchase maintenance with your Flex Builder 3 Standard purchase for an additional $99 US which makes you eligible for a free-of-charge copy of Flash Builder 4 Standard edition when it ships. You can purchase maintenance with your Flex Builder 3 Pro purchase for an additional $299 US. To purchase maintenance, you will need to buy through an Adobe reseller. In the US, please contact CDW at 800-800-4239.

SQL Web Edition license migration - SPLA

I currently have SQL Server web edition 2008 R2 SPLA lisence, for which I pay to my VPS server provider (hosting company).
I would like to know if I can get the SPLA lisence key from another supplier and use it with the instance which I already have on my machine.
Meaning that I would keep the existing instance and somehow replace the key with the one that I get from the new supplier.
Another question is - currently I have two instances of SQL Server web edition 2008 R2 on the same server, according to my understanding I don't need to pay for the SPLA license twice. Is this correct?
One last question - is there a way in which I can check on how many cores is the SQL Server web edition 2008 R2 running?
Say that I have a Quad-Code server but I bought licese for two cores, how can I verify that the instanace is running on two cores?
