SYMPTOMS

When you attempt to check out licenses on a computer running Systems Management Server Software Metering Client Agent, you are unable to start Check32.exe.

Additionally, you may receive the following message:

There are no products for you to check out.

Before you are able to check out a license, the following conditions must be true:
  • The product has been launched at the Software Metering server to trigger balancing.
  • Replication of this license has occurred at the Software Metering server.
  • Licenses are available at the Software Metering server to allow you check out the product license.

WORKAROUND

Allow additional time for all updates and changes to occur between the Software Metering server, the Systems Management Server site, and the client.

STATUS

This behavior is by design.
