Resolution
Make sure that the CPU or Host ID for the failed license system correct as per the permanent key by running vardir/install/splex_uname. Note that the Host ID matches the license key, see license below (SP_SYS_LIC_2160152863).
example:
suntrain6 # ./splex_uname
Quest Software Inc. splex_uname version 5.3.2.54
Local system info:
Host Name = suntrain6
Host ID = 2160152863
Operating System = SunOS
OS Version = 5.8
Machine Model = SUNW,Ultra-5_10
CPU Type = sparcv9
CPU Speed = 333
Number of CPUs = 1
1) backup current paramdb to extract key params
2) Copied paramdb from one of the working ports vardir/data directory
3) Preserved the working license key parameter on the copied paramdb
example:
SP_SYS_LIC_2160152863 DBJ8VTQ3LLZT2JH6A2WV07GE6KDGETN:SharePlex_Trial
4) Copy the owner, login, tport and uport parameters from the bad paramdb file
example:
SP_COP_TPORT I restart_cop int(>0) 2100 # Cops tcp port
SP_COP_UPORT I restart_cop int(>0) 2100 # Cops udp port
SP_ORD_LOGIN_O.ORCL 579fd983ba4100
SP_ORD_OWNER_O.ORCL splexberta
NOTE: If there have been other modified parameters, be sure to copy those params as well.
5) made sure that permissions and ownerships are correct
example:
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root other 920 Dec 26 18:48 paramdb
NOTE: If you check whether the license is valid by running prodir/install/splex_get_key, it will still show an invalid license. This will get refreshed after cop is restarted, below.
6) start cop
