Starting with Replication Server 15.2 on IBM AIX, there is a change to the process of how Replication Server determines the number of CPUs available to it. Customers running Replication Server on IBM AIX with logical partitions may find that the number of CPUs reported has changed with 15.2. This happens because Replication Server now counts the total number of CPUs available to the partition. This may result in the product defaulting to grace period (of 30 days) or the product may fail to start if grace period had elapsed.
Currently, Sybase Replication Server does not support sub-capacity licensing for IBM LPAR. If you believe you may encounter this issue, please contact Sybase Customer Support to raise a support incident. Sybase will send an appropriate solution to workaround the issue.
