		debug the license check-out failure. For more information, see “Adaptive Server cannot
		check out a license and starts with graced license instead” in this table.
		If you are upgrading an existing Adaptive Server version 15.0 or later, Adaptive Server
		may not start after the upgrade if you do not have a suitable license. Exit the installation
		program and see if the existing Adaptive Server is able to check-out licenses. If it is not,
		troubleshoot this issue and then proceed with the upgrade.
		If the existing Adaptive Server is able to check-out licenses, verify the license you are
		using authorizes use of the update you are applying. This can be determined using the date
		based version of your license file and the date this update was released. You must have a
		license with a date based version that is greater than or equal to the date the update was
		released. Adaptive Server provides a grace period for updating the licenses after support
		is renewed.
		The date based version of the license can be determined from the Version column of the
		output from sp_lmconfig, by looking at the license checkout message in the Adaptive
		Server errorlog, or by examining the license itself. For more information, see Appendix A,
		“Anatomy of a License,” of the Sybase Software Asset Management User’s Guide.
		The release date of the Adaptive Server can be determined by the date displayed in the
		version string, cover letter, or SPDC download link. This data is also shown in the error
		message posted.
		You can download an updated license from SPDC, if your support was paid for the date
		the update was released. If you support was not paid, you are not authorized to install an
		update.
		See Appendix B of Sybase Software Asset Management User’s Guide for explanation of
		how SySAM uses date-based versioning. See “Updating your Sybase licenses” in Chapter
		3, “Getting and Using your Licenses,” in the Sybase Software Asset Management User’s
		Guide for how to update your license.
