Which license did you request: initial license use the license code L-UCS-CTR-INI=.

This is the license for the first 5 domains and is 0$.

For domains >5 you need domain licenses use the license code L-UCS-CTR-LIC=.

[Stefan Gruber]

Hi  i have this

Product Name: L-UCS-CTR-INI=

Product Description: UCS Central Initial Activation for 5 UCS Domains

Entitlement Qty: 1

Than i made with the PAK and the GUID from my UCS Central the lic file Online.

Downlode and unpack it.

now i have this file: UCSCENTRALFEAT2014xxxxxxxxxxx.lic

And i can't uplode it!

[Walter Dey]

Ok, you did everything correctly.

Can you change the name of the file, and try again.

Or deregister your UCS domain, and start from scratch ?

[Stefan Gruber]

thx for help

i have Change the Name: same Problem

I have Change Group Assigment to the "Domain Group root"  in UCS C: same Problem

I have "unregister"  from UCS Central in UCS Manager after Change Group " Assignment back to "unregistered" in UCS C: Same Problem

I think the Problem is thats "grace Period Used: 5 Days??

Deleting a license from Cisco UCS Central removes only the license file from the system.

If you try to download the same license after deleting it from the system, you might encounter a download license error.

So when you delete a license, you must delete the associated download task for that license

Hello and thx

i see this too,

but if u see  the second and the third pic in my first post, u can see that i don't have any downloade Tasks or lic's  in the UCS Central.

This is the first time if i would to uploade a lic, I have never delet a lic!

[Walter Dey]

Hi Steve !

Reboot your VM, and if this doesn't fix the issue, open a TAC case.

Walter.
