APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • The TPC 5.1.1 fix pack does not include a product license with
    it.  This is normal for a fix pack.  However, if you have
    started the installation program without adding a license to the
    installation image, you will be prompted for the location of
    your license file.  If you navigate to your license file and
    then continue, the installation will complete but you will not
    have a license applied.  Subsequent attempts to upgrade
    the license through the GUI installer do not resolve the issue.
    

Local fix

  • If a new installation of the fix pack is required, copy your
    nodelock license to the TPC 5.1.1 installation media
    (license\key directory)before starting the installtion program.
    
    If you have already encountered this issue, you can resolve it
    in two ways:
    1) Use the silent install instructions to do a license upgrade.
    2) Uninstall TPC and then reinstall with the license copied into
    your TPC 5.1.1 media.
