I've got a floating license on my regular user account as well and I
do periodically see the listed message. When I am logged in to Remedy
User and my floating license is not used for the period defined in the
Server Information -> Timeouts -> Floating License timeout, my license
will fall back to a read license and will no longer consume a license
from the pool.
If I start using Remedy User again after this period, I will get the
mentioned message. My understanding was, that this is "as designed".
If this is not the case, please let me know.

Kind regards,

Michiel

Yes I remember that discussion. What I don't know is why this message
suddenly started. It says a license has become available. Well that is
not true there was always one available. The users should not be seeing
this message.

Subject: Re: License Write Token Message (U)

There was a lengthy discussion not too long back around whether people
are granted a write token when they are authenticated.  The conclusion
I drew/observed is that people are not automatically granted a
floating write token when authenticated (if a floating license is
allocated to that account), but as soon as the user performs a
get/set/delete/create/merge entry operation, a floating write token is
allocated.  There was a bug with earlier (6.0.1 p147x and earlier)
where a floating write token is allocated when a preference server is
used, but this has been reported to be fixed, though I have yet to
confirm this fix.

You may try grabbing the aruser.log and arapi.log files and see
whether a get/set/create entry operation is performed by the account
at the time the popup/write upgrade happens.

If this does happen to be the cause, I'm sure a way can be found to
automatically grant a write token at login time (have init form
perform an update, etc.).
