I have been chasing this issue all day, it appears no hardware changes were made to the development box. Logs show the development box hasn't been resatarted in over a week, so I am guessing no hardware changes were made while the server was up. :-) If we imported a .lic file from a 6X system to a 7X system, could the upgrade to 7.1 possibly affect this? Before I started at current company, I think they took the .lic file from a 6X server and moved it over to the new 7.0 server. I think this has something to do with the new license structure around 7.1. We upgraded from 7.0 to 7.1 recently and I thought I had a all license issues resolved. Did I mention I am perplexed? :)
