Yes PID tapes have LIC on them.

This may or may not be correct, but, if I understand what I have 
heard today... The following conditions need to happen to cause
the system to require FULIC/MULIC tape....

1. MFIOP has changed
2. Processor card has changed
3. Serial Number has changed....

A scratch load on a New or Dead system does NOT require FULIC/MULIC...

One other area I'm still trying to nail down is this.....

Does tapes from PID come with or without LIC ??????
I am referring to V3R2 as an example.....

I tend to believe that they DO have the LIC, because if you are
at V3R1 and you wish to goto V3r2,,, the system does NOT require
that LIC be loaded prior to update..... In the example of a dead
system....(BRAND NEW LOAD SOURCE) you should be able to load the
whole mess from PID tapes...IE: 1. LIC  2. OS/400 3. LPP... but 
somewhere along the way,,, I missed out on somthing......

My customer with broke system is almost back to life..... LPP's are
loading now.... Full system backup is coming next....... He is now
a fully converted believer......... Everybody done option 21 lately.....
