Sybase 15 If a SySAM license cannot be acquired, Acquiring SySAM licenses during the grace period

Sybase Software Asset Management

If Replication Server cannot obtain a license, SySAM evaluates whether the license can be issued under a grace period. The grace periods evaluated are described in “License availability and grace periods” on page 11.

If a SySAM license cannot be acquired

If the license cannot be issued during the grace period, Replication Server does not start and errors are reported in the error log file.

The error messages indicate the product’s inability to obtain a valid license, and why the license could not be obtained. You must fix the license failure before you can use Replication Server.

Acquiring SySAM licenses during the grace period

If the license can be issued during the grace period, the issue is logged and
