Thanks Ryan. I knew I was pushing my luck with doing multiple restores, so I'm
really glad it worked out. I was ready to start from scratch.

license files? [UPDATE 1]
There's a defect for the old license files triggering the grace period error.
There's another one for the CLI command to delete licenses not working, so I'm
glad you didn't hit that one :)
But yes, since the licenses are included in the backup when you did your second
restore it stuck the old licenses back on there. You were correct in deleting
them again.

I tried uploading the license files but got a file already exists error.
I used the file delete license command, deleted the files, uploaded them
again, and the Refresh COP file install seems to be progressing.
Hopefully the ugprade to v9 succeeds as well.

Thanks Tommy.
I'm using HP equivalent MCS servers, so the jump upgrade does not work. Tried
it, failed. Got feed back from the group that it's not supported.

Lelio,
Once you install the latest refresh.cop file you do not have to rehost your
licenses to upgrade to 9. You can do the following: (per the jump upgrade
guide):
Install fresh 7.X server on Vmware (Using the same IP addresses and hostnames)
Install upgrade.cop
Restore your DRS Backup
Upgrade to 9.x
DRS Backup
Create fresh 9.x server – To align your partitions
Restore DRS backup
Thanks
Tommy

OK, so here's where I'm at. Probably not a recommended or common activity, but
it's where we're at. I've accepted the fact I might have to start over again.
I've (1) rebuilt a v7 CallManager cluster in the lab, (2) restored from backup,
(3) applied new re-hosted licenses, (4) applied the Refresh COP file and (5)
upgraded successfully to v9. That process has been tested a few times.
In order to test the rebuild/restore process for IPCCx v7, we stopped at step
(3). Unfortunately, we found we had to make a few changes, so to speed things
along, I restored a more recent backup to the lab cluster.
I'm just wondering, what the chances are of me being able to upgrade the v7
CallManager cluster to v9 after I completed another restore between steps (3)
and (4). Should I apply the rehosted license file again? It's there, listed in
the license files.
Also, I noticed that after I upload the rehosted license files, the old ones
are still there. Should I remove those?
Thanks everyone.
Lelio
