Summary


Details


Customer needs to change the IP address on the SPLM license server. The 
hostname and mac address will remain the same, but the /IP address will 
change. Will the composite id (CID) change?



Solution

1) 99.9% certainty an IP address change will have no effect since /IP address 
is abstraction from hostname contained in license file.


2) .1% uncertainty in that GTAC is not privy to all the elements used to 
construct a composite ID (CID). (Information is classified as SIEMENS secret)


Our current belief is that composite is based only on server host h/w elements 
not software elements such as the /ip address.
