Hi,
As you mentioned, there are multiple NICs in your server(may be
one-onboard and other-NIC card). If am not wrong, each NIC on your
machine will be dealing with a seperate network. This situation is
typically like a router. You might be using one NIC to access your local
intranet and other NIC through which your server is connected to the
global network.
Now in that case, you need to mention the MAC address of that NIC on
which you want the global connectivity. You will find the same MAC
address as HostID in the license provided by BMC. So the selection of
HostID will depends on you, which NIC you want to work with ARS. Now if
this NIC fails, ARS may not recognize the licenses through the other NIC.
Hope this will help you.
Thanks,
Anshuman

I would like to know what hostid Remedy will generate to ask for the
licenses, without installing ARS. I know that the hostid will be the
Mac
Address without "-", but our server has several network cards. How can
I
guess in this case which hostid will Remedy select?
Thanks
