- Receiving e-mail notifications about SySAM licensing – When you configure SAP Sybase IQ to send
an e-mail notifications about SySAM licensing failures, the
e-mail messages do not contain HELO tokens, which some SMTP
mail servers require to process messages correctly.

- An incorrect CPU count may occur on AIX servers – Client connections to an AIX server may occasionally fail when the server
performs periodic CPU license checks. This can sometimes
result in an incorrect CPU count.

- CPU count incorrect on IBM AIX with POWER7 processors – SAP Sybase IQ may incorrectly count more cores than are
actually present on AIX POWER7 systems when Simultaneous
MultiThreading (SMT) is greater than 2 per core. This may
result in the SAP Sybase IQ server
not starting due to licensing problems or the server may
start in grace mode.
- Workaround – Turn off hyperthreading, configure SMT equal to 2 per core, or contact
SAP Sybase Technical
Support.

- License server reports wrong number of available licenses – When a product requires multiple licenses and the license server has
insufficient licenses available to satisfy its needs, the
failure message reported by the product does not show the
correct amount that were available (that the product could
obtain). For example, there are 5 license in a SySAM server,
3 are in use by other host, so only 2 licenses can be
obtained. But SySAM will report wrong message "Insufficient
IQ_CORE licenses. SAP Sybase IQ
requires 4 IQ_CORE licenses but only 5 could be
obtained."
- Workaround – There is no current workaround. SAP Sybase is aware of
the problem and will address the issue in a future
release.

- Licensing behavior in a virtual environment – SAP Sybase IQ cannot be installed or
fails to start in a virtual environment and reports an error
similar to the following:
Cannot determine the total number of processor cores on
the machine from within this virtual system. The IQ_CORE
("DH") license type is restricted for use on a machine
with a maximum of 4 processor cores regardless of
whether the virtual system is limited to use fewer
processor cores. You need to run 'sysamcap' on the
physical machine (or virtual-machine/partition control
domain) and set the reported environment variable prior
to running Installer.
This error is raised in the following circumstances:- SAP Sybase IQ is running on a
virtual system which doesn't have access to the
processor counts of the physical machine (this
applies to all virtual environments except AIX LPAR
and HP-UX vPar).
- SAP Sybase IQ is using a
license type that is restricted for use to a machine
with no more than a specific number of processors
(for example, SAP Sybase IQ
Single Application Server Edition cannot be used on
a machine with more than 16 processor cores, ASE
Small Business Edition cannot be used on a machine
with more than 2 processor chips).
- Workaround – Run the sysamcap DEFAULT command on the
physical machine or control domain for the virtualization
technology (for example, VMware ESX console, or XEN dom0),
then set the environment variable reported prior to running
the product or product installer. The process is described
in the SySAM Sub-capacity Licensing section of the SySAM Users
GuideSybase Software Asset Management (SySAM) 2 Users Guide.

- SySAM Licensing Checkout – If SAP Sybase IQ was licensed using a
per-processor license type in previous releases, the license
quantity was determined at startup. In this release,
SAP Sybase IQ
periodically checks for the number of processors it can use
and attempts to check out additional licenses for any
increase. SAP Sybase IQ shuts down after 30 days, if
additional licenses are not made available within this
period. See the Sybase Software Asset Management (SySAM) 2 Users Guide for
details regarding license grace.
