Hi,

I have a question, hope anyone can help. I create an enterprise Geodatabase when I was using a temporarily license. I Authorize Server with the permanent license but I need to Authorize my enterprise geodatabase with my permanent license. I haven't found how to do that. What I found, according to this blog (http://blogs.esri.com/esri/supportcenter/2013/06/04/updating-the-license-for-enterprise-geodatabases...), I need to wait until my temporarily license expire and then update my enterprise geodatabase license and It is currently not possible to run the Update ArcGIS Server License tool if the license for the geodatabase is still valid. My temporarily license is valid until summer next year and I can't wait until then to do my update.

How can I do that? is there a way to update my geodatabase license?

Appreciate your help!

Best regards,

Diego Llamas

Quoting the link you provided:
If ArcGIS for Server was previously authorized with the new license, simply reference the keycodes file using the sdesetup �??o update_key command.
....
It is currently not possible to run the Update ArcGIS Server License tool if the license for the geodatabase is still valid


It appears you have it backwards -- The license in the geodatabase can be updated,
not the ArcGIS server install. You can, of course, uninstall AGS then re-install, which
would let you use the new keycode.
