At home I use a downloaded program called SIW.exe to save all the product codes 
 (Microsoft licenses).  This tool gives me quite a bit of info and has allowed 
me to load stuff that I bought but lost my keys.  I don't have a P91 to try it 
on, but it might be interesting to see what info it saves about your licenses.

Thanks Alex.  That is good news.  We bought a backup box to insure we would 
always be able to recover this critical server rapidly but since a backup from 
one box and restore to a new one is not possible using Symantec, you must do a 
Day0/Day1 on the new box in order to use it.  This generates the new hostid  
that requires new authorization codes be obtained.  I wasn't privy to the 
existence of the temporary auth codes and evidently neither was my Foxboro 
contact. You mentioned a code re-generator. How can I find and download that? 
Thanks for your help.

Re: AIM*AT Authorization

Tom,

It doesn't have to be awful.

You can get a temporary code by going to the GCS website
(http://support.ips.invensys.com <http://support.ips.invensys.com/> ), clicking 
on Support, clicking
Foxboro, and choosing the AIM Temp Code pick.

It will allow AIM*AT to run until the machine is rebooted or 90 days
whichever is longer.

Once you have your new codes, edit the file /opt/aim/bin/an_init.tcp and
enter the new codes into it. It's pretty obvious what to change. I never
use the GUI.


There's also an AIM*AT Code Regenerator, but I've never used it.
