Can any one tell me why I change the number of license in smit to a different number and days later it will default back to 32 and my change is gone? Operating on Aix 5.1L
Thanks for the reply.
Right now the lslicense command says max is 100 and floating license is enabled. The machine reboots every night so far it has been 2 days since we made the change and it has not gone back to default. It could be today, the next day or next week before it goes back to default. We have made this change to 100 several times and it always goes back to 32 in a matter of time.
chlicense -u worked for about 2 weeks and now it has defaulted back to 32 license. Have chage it several times to off and on and it keeps reverting back. Any more suggestions?
Aafter changing with chlicense command ,also edit the file
/etc/security/login.cfg for the parameter
maxlogins = 32 ...Then reboot.
Please ensure that your login.cfg file has new number...
and let me know if not resolved...

The last time we changed it was on the 19th and so far so good. The time before that it lasted about 2 weeks before it went back to default. Will keep a eye on it and hopefully this will slove problem.
Thanks
Well,
It's taken from the 19th of Aug. till the 9th of Sept. to change back to the default setting of 32 license, but it did change back. Got any more suggestions? Thanks.
I thought your first post said the system already was at 5.1. I'm just wondering if a new maintenance level would have fixed the problem. But they aren't making MLs for 4.3.1 anymore.
