Avaya licensing is making me grow grey hairs at 26 2

[aloose]

Ok so im pulling all my hair out and slitting my wrists, This Avaya Licensing is a damn joke.

There has to be something Im doing wrong I cannot believe Avaya can sell a product without every customer screaming.

Randomly throughout the week, month, year, day The IP403 decides oh hey Im not licensed and decides to invalidate the licensing. Now thats not entirely correct, I dont know when its happening for sure as I am very busy and most of the time im doing reactive reboots and such. Yes I have done the whole plug un plug reboot start services thing and it fixes it... temporarly... Then when the server reboots sometimes it dosent link back up.

Like today for example, The Key server service was red (thats good) and the PBX said Invalid licenses... So I reboot the PBX... Still invalid... ooookay, so I reboot the server, then the PBX, Still invalid so im like ooooooooooookay then I remove the dongle, plug it back in, and reboot the PBX and bam its good again... This licensing is a joke, cant they just have you plug something into the damn pbx? I cant deal with this. Someone please please help me.

aarenot, Thank you for that wonderful criticism. Im asking for help. why else would I be on a forum looking for help?

Anyway. The licenses are showing Valid now that I set up a seperate box runing nothing but the licensing, pluged directly into the IP403 using half duplex. So thank you all for helping me with that. There is however another problem which I will post seperatly. It appears my problems were two-fold.

Well, since you got help, but did not listen I assume you are hear to be told what you want to hear otherwise you would be doing what you were advised to do.

To re-re-re-re-reiterate, get a dedicated server for the Avaya software which specifies this like the VMPRO.
