b. If you don’t want to uninstall Security Manager, another technique for removing
evaluation licenses is to manually delete them. Stop the services in this order: HP
JetAdvantage Security Manager service, HP Print License service, Flexera service.
Delete the evaluation license file under C:\ProgramData\HP\HP Print License
Service\Licenses (don't delete the DemoLicense file). Delete all recovery files under
the Recovery directories (if present), then restart the services in reverse order you
stopped them.
4. If problems still exist, there might be a port conflict. For example, Port 8888 needs to be
open for the HP Print License service so check firewall and/or McAfee type firewall
products. It might be easier to allow applications through the firewall instead of specific
ports, so allow the following through Rules:
C:\Program Files (x86)\ HP JetAdvantage Security Manager\HP Print License Service\lmgrd.exe
C:\Program Files (x86)\ HP JetAdvantage Security Manager\HP Print License Service\HPQ.exe
C:\Program Files (x86)\ HP JetAdvantage Security Manager\HP Print License
Service\HP.Print.License.Host.WindowsService.exe
Even though Flexera and the HP Print License service are on the same machine, other
products that use the HP Print License service may not have Flexera on the same machine.
The HP Print License Service requires the dedication of this TCP Port and can’t be modified for
alternative port assignment.
5. Other applications such as ePrint also use this HP Print License service but can use a different
version that conflicts with version used by Security Manager. For this reason, ePrint and
Security Manager cannot coexist on the same machine. You may have to uninstall the
existing HP Print License Service under Programs and Features or Add/Remove Programs and
reinstall Security Manager to obtain the proper HP Print License Service.
6. If Security Manager had been installed and the IP Address changed, that could cause issues
as the HP Print License service would be trying to contact the Flexera service as seen in a log
file:
net.tcp//Old IP Address:8888/LicensingService
An uninstall and reinstall of HPSM would solve this issue.
7. A purchased license file must be ordered with the exact match of the Security Manager server
MAC address. The HP Print License manager will fail to operate properly without this exact
match. If using VMWare, make sure the appropriate virtual adapter MAC address is used.
The physical mac address of the nic for the machine as seen under IPCONFIG is not the mac
address of the VM. Check the documentation of the VM vendor for instructions on how to
find the mac address. VMWare also recommends a static MAC assignment to accomodate
software licensing scenarios. If set to dynamic, it will not match the mac address in the
license file any longer. Check the documentation of the VM vendor for instructions on how to
set to static.
If the mac address in the license is not what Security Manager expects, there should be an
error in the Flexera.log file found under C:\ProgramData\HP\HP Print License Service
indicating what it read in the license file and what it expects for the correct mac address:
10:15:13 (HPQ) Wrong hostid on SERVER line for license file:
10:15:13 (HPQ) C:\ProgramData\HP\HP Print License Service\LicenseFiles\24092015101513_IPSC_DEVICES.lic
10:15:13 (HPQ) SERVER line says d8d38582501d, hostid is d8d38582501c
10:15:13 (HPQ) Invalid hostid on SERVER line
