OK, I gotta ask -- what's the problem you're trying to solve? You
don't trust your customers? In over a quarter century in the mainframe
software business, I've come across ONE customer running software on
an unlicensed box, and it was an oversight -- and a nice full-price
bluebird for the sales rep. I don't believe "CPUIDs" are worth the
hassle.
OK,
I have run into two companies and one was just cheapness and the
other was well dishonest.
Both knew better but until a hammer is applied at the head nothing
was accomplished.
I pointed out the issue and was told to shut up.
The other company claimed stupidity and I was told to shut up.
