Issue/Introduction

When upgrading CA 2E 8.7 to a second partition on the same iSeries physical machine such that two installations of 2E exist, one in each partition.  Can this be done with just one product license of 2E on the iSeries machine?  Does the licensing change for another partition on the same iSeries box?

Environment

Release:
Component: C22E

Resolution

Yes, this can be done and the license does not change for another partition on the same iSeries Box.   The 2E license is dependent on the model (DSPSYSVAL QMODEL) and serial number (DSPSYSVAL QSRLNBR) and nothing more. You can utilize the same 2E license on more than 1 partition, on the same physical (model/serial) machine.
