The speed of this list always amazes. A response from Larry Clegg in less
than a minute. And when that didn't work, I asked for more info and got it
minutes later. Thanks to Larry!

The answer:

    An "lmf reset" revealed that I was right 400 units (even with the 50
additional from the "other" license) is not enough to make a license active:

Combine OSF-BASE ALS-NQ-2000DEC11-2621 with OSF-BASE ALS-NQ-1998NOV06-93
Not enough units to load OSF-BASE DEC

    Larry suggested increasing the number of units using "lmf modify" until
the "lmf reset" command completed sucessfully.
    I raised the units on the "50" unit license I suspected belonged to each
member of the cluster to "100" and like magic:

Combine OSF-BASE ALS-NQ-2000DEC11-2621 with OSF-BASE ALS-NQ-1998NOV06-93

    It worked, I now have:

Product Status Users: Total
Active

OSF-BASE active unlimited
OSF-BASE active, multiple unlimited
ADVFS-UTILITIES active unlimited
OSF-DEV active unlimited
OSF-SVR active unlimited
OSF-USR active unlimited
OSF-USR active, multiple unlimited
TCS-UA active unlimited

    Of course now it's back to Compaq to tru and find out why they didn't
provide enough units with the software licenses to make the software work
properly and see if I can get the proper license packs reissued.

Thanks again Larry!

UNIX is very user friendly, It's just very particular about who it makes
friends with.
