If you've just upgraded your hardware and didn't have the IPLA agreement in place you probably got extra entitlement based on the full capacity of the processor. In that case you're stuck, because as was stated in a previous post IBM doesn't give it back. We ran into that with out upgrade last June from a 620 MIPS processor to a 1004 MIPS processor. We signed the agreement for EWLC licensing but didn't know about the need for a separate IPLA agreement. So now we are paying full price for our IPLA products.
