License needs to be the same if you are going to run them in failover pair. You can get the 3DES license online, or alternatively you can contact the licensing team who can cut you the activation key for 3DES license.

Go to this link: https://tools.cisco.com/SWIFT/Licensing/PrivateRegistrationServlet?DemoKeys=Y

click on Cisco ASA 3DES/AES License

Fill in your info. and provide the serial number of this ASA that does not have VPN 3DES license.
