With regard to the license key, I think it makes sense that, if you're
going charge for the product at all, you require a license key. However,
I'm concerned about applying a PTF to make us require a license key
because no license key was shipped to us with the product CD and nothing
has shown up in ESS yet since we bought. Presumably there will be a
(70-day?) grace period which would hopefully be long enough to get IBM
to send us a key. Or is there some other way of obtaining a license key?


Pete (and Aaron), sorry for the confusion about this. I had forgotten exactly how the OAR license works.

It isn't a keyed license, so there's no 70-day grace period. When you buy the product, it's only for one machine, and you have to accept the license agreement when you install the product. Once that license agreement has been accepted for the machine, you can use the product.

I think you probably already have the 7.1 PTF that corrected the OAR license-check problem; the PTF was done prior to GA, and my understanding is that it would be pre-applied on all systems.

The problem with the OAR license check was only in 7.1. The 6.1 version never had the problem.
