Hi! Anyone experienced this?
Tried removing all ADI licences from our lab IP500v2 with R11.1.2.3. Tried removing all at once, tried removing one-by-one.
When opening the cfg in Manager they are gone.
But after a reboot they are all back.? Strange!
Is the only way to get rid of these ADI licenses to Format SD card in Manager?
The SD card is PCS 17 and is 10 digit serialFK SN instead of later PCS with 12 digit PLDS. Could that be it?
Tested Defaulting config - did not remove the ADI licenes.
Tested Recreate IPO SD card - did not remove the ADI licenses.
Tested using reset-button on the back of IP500v2 (veryfied process with RS232 DTE, and was forced to set new passwords after restart) - Still the ADI licences are there!
I think you are not talking about ADI license but the PLDS ones.
ADI Licenses are full text to be copied INTO the sysem config, it means if you delete it all the config is empty in terms of licenses, no doubt.
VICEVERSA the PLDS licenses live in a separate xml file, not depending on the system config at all, even if you erase the config (both via manager or DTE) at reboot you will find them all again.
The Serial FK lenght is not vital, the PLDS allows to add "11" to the real Host ID so that you'll have a 12 digits based SD number.
Finally, if your system it's in R11.x but comes from an upgrade path (I mean 9.0 or previous) you will see duplicated licenses, both PLDS and ADI (as invalid), that means that deleting he ADI licenses is not needed.
Well Yes, there are both ADI and PLDS licenses.
The IPO500v2 is working with r11.1.2.3.0 so the ADI licences has status "Obsolete" while the PLDS licences shown as "Valid"
What I want is to delete the obsolete ADI licences bur this seems to be impossible with this IP500v2 and SD card. (It's demo licences, perhaps that's the problem)
You can remove them. They are gone when loading the config. - But after a reboot, they're all back again.
The reason I want to remove them is that there are rebooting problems reported while ADI licences are still in the system. Not in my case thought but I wanted to clean it up.
If I'm about to upgrade an old IP500v2 and that system reboots because of old ADI licences, then there is no way to solve it on that customer other than providing a brand new IP500v2 and SD card..
What I would do is remove the licenses and upload the config. Then pull the config.cfg file from the SD card and verify they are gone from that copy of the config. That is the only reason I can see that they would come back after a reboot since it is the config it loads on a reboot and not the running config. Maybe for what ever reason it isn't writing to that file properly.

I do confirm the ADI licenses are loaded into the system config and doesn't matter if Demo or not Demo unit.
However do not forget the system config is saved in 2 different folders: system\primary and system\backup so that maybe the system is recovering the backup config from the related folder, you can try to delete it from the system\backup folder of the SD card.
If you want run a test you can save the PLDSKeys.xml file from the system\primary folder (it's the PLDS license file, store it in a safe point), then delete the sysem config at factory default. I think the system will restart with default settings and no ADI licenses will be seen
