You mentioned Usage. Interestingly enough, at least to me, is that BMC is 
one of the vendors that doesn't seem to use IFAUSAGE - so no Usage Data 
sections in SMF 30 and (I would guess) nothing in SMF 89.

I'm not sure what to make of that, except to assume their licencing works 
differently.

Anyone care to enlighten me?

Thanks, Martin (not interested in mischief) :-)

Thanks for the info Ken. That's one of our worries with the increased MIPS 
our serial will still be the same but the model number will obviously 
change and we are not on any capacity or usage charge so we have no idea 
how the products will react with the change in model and if they will 
still continue working or not.
