[foxboro] Adding a DM license

Hi list,

I'm running into a stumper in the Display Manager licensing area. I need to 
pick the brain of some old-timers who still use DM.

I've recently purchased two additional DM licenses to add to a WP51D. I edited 
the file /usr/fox/customer/hi/dmcfg to add these licenses along with their 
associated AM screens. I rebooted the WP, and the new DM licenses show up in 
the DM_Usage screen. So far so good.

However, I cannot use them because the license count at the bottom of the 
screen did not change from the previous count of 6. Once 6 DMs have been 
invoked, I get the "No DM License Available" message, even though the DM_Usage 
screen shows two more unused.

Short of redefining the number of DM licenses in SysDef and recommitting this 
WP, is there a file (or files) I can edit to change the total license count?

(I tried editing IIF.lum and IIF.prm but suffice to say that this didn't 
provide the desired result.)

BTW, this is a legitimate DM addition (my sales guy is on this list and can 
vouch for our purchase of the DM licenses). But I can see where answering this 
question can open up a Pandora's box of issues. So, feel free to reply off-list 
if you'd rather.

Thanks!

Duc
