I can't find in our license package this file (LicensingWizard.msi ). Please help me to get off from expired evalution mode, without uninstalling the whole system, as we made a lot of configuration changes in it.
ASKER
i want to introduce the brief description of system.
the system is installed on two servers
1. RMS
2. DB
please keep in mind these configuration when you suggest some solution

any ideas?
ASKER
after preinstallation all works fine, now I need to upgrade to full version. but I haven't LicenseWizard.msi on my cd. what can I do?
Hmm... and mods get to add questions to dead zones (zones no one else can add questions to). Excellent. ;-)
With apologies,
Aameriaadmin, were you able to read technet article 937826, suggested above by Neilsr? The title was "How to upgrade the 180-day evaluation version of System Center Operations Manager 2007 to the full product version." It indicates that "Note Service Pack 1 no longer uses or contains the LicensingWizard tool to apply licenses. To apply licenses, use the SetupOM.exe file." I'm hoping that means SP1 and beyond.
Apparently the article is unavailable right at the moment, but the relevant text:
I'm not clear if you already attempted that process?
Thanks for your patience

Yes, I would try modify. I would hope the page listing what to change would give you the option of applying the license.
ASKER
it doesnt give me any option to applying the license

Curious. (And I apologize... I never had the eval installed... had the install media for the full install initially.)
Confirm that it still reports that it's using the Eval license.
Then, I can't think of any reason that the Repair option would do any harm. I'd try that next.

ASKER
the repair option didn't help.
ASKER
what can I do else
ASKER
I haven't any option to enter thy product key. What can I do in this situation?
When you purchased the license for SCOM, did you just get a product key, or did you also get a new set of media? (Or the option/instructions for ISO download?)
As I recall, the full software had the license key embedded on the DVD/download.

ASKER
I don't know how to import license key to scom 2007R2.
ASKER
I have no any wizard, how can I do it?
Do you only have a license key, or do you also have a media set, or access to download the full version install?
ASKER
I have media set without license key, and have download access, but in the downloaded folder I have no licensing.msi file.
My licensed download doesn't have a licensing.msi file either.
It would appear that the license is embedded in the SetupOM.exe, on the licensed media set. If you are running the SetupOM.exe on the existing (Eval) RMS, it's suppose to license that server. If it isn't, I'd open a conversation with your vendor to acquire the correct disk or download. (I suspect you are inadvertently getting the eval software a second time.)
