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.
