Resolution
If you are using a laptop that gets unplugged from your network there could be a problem with licenses becoming expired, this is caused by a hostname change. To make sure this issue does not happen you will need to create a static hostname in the hostconfig file under Mac OSX.
Steps to change to a static hostname:
1. Go to etc/hostconfig
2. VI the file and change the line HOSTNAME= (input the static hostname)
3. Save the file
For MAC OS 10.4 and higher you may need to add a line to the hostconfig file:
HOSTNAME=hostnameyouwouldlike -
