Problem in Xsan licenses while installing
by Mohan Kumar on Oct 25, 2009 at 7:20:22 am

Let me give my background first of all. I am working in Apple Sales in Middle East and had supplied a couple of Xserves wotj Xsan 2 (12 Licenses). Unfortunately our engineers are unable to complete the setup due to a license error which is "There are not enough Xsan 2 Serial Numbers" where as all the serial numbers entered are valid and we are entering for 2 Xserves and 10 mac workstations.
I have attached the screen shot in PNG. Need advise if someone had encountered this problem.

I ran into this issue also. Some research turned up this information regarding the error message in question:

- http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2166811&start=15&tstart=0

- http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2949

It appears to be a bug in the OS X Server serial number verification framework, when multiple network interfaces are in use. I experienced this issue on 10.5.8 Server, with XSAN 2.2.

I updated OS X Server with the 10.5.8 Server Combo Update v.1.1, which resolved the issue in my case. You can download the update here:

This issue is also present in OS X 10.6 server:

And resolved in the 10.6.1 Server update:

- http://support.apple.com/kb/DL929

Hope this resolves your issue.
