SySAM checks feature licensing at various times. Some features are only checked on startup; others after the feature has been added to the database (e.g., passed the threshold for IQ store size, created multiplex writer, etc.); others are triggered by a particular event.
Table B-1 describes the events that determine when SySAM checks out different licenses.

Changes to licensed features may not appear until the
server is restarted. Checked out licences remain in use until you
restart the server.
