There is no license needed to use Eclipse but a license is required for the RPG & COBOL Tools after the trial expires. This is the component that brings you the IBM I specific connection ability and all the IBM I specific function.

I have the same question/issue. My IBM RDi license type says "permanent" and status "license key available". My RPG and COBOL tools says "trial" and "license key has expired". I am not able to use RDi at all. I get a license error when I try to expand object list. I didn't think the "tools" was a required license to use RDi.

FWIW, this is RDi 9.6.0.
Currently, my License Type is "Trial". I went to "Manage Licenses" today to see how much longer the trial lasts. I was surprised to see the license status was "License key available".
So, I clicked on Apply License, which fired up Installation Manager. It shows RDi 9.6.0.11 with a permanent license, and "RPG and COBOL Tools" with a trial license. I select the latter, and click the "Import product Activation Kit". It then asks for the repository, of which I am unaware.
So, I guess I'm wondering what "License key available" actually means. Is this referring to the permanent RDi license or the trial "RPG and COBOL Tools" license?
