[cisco-voip] Retrieve installed license for shipped CUC 6.x

[Roy Lin]

Hi Ryan,

We have sasu and have a cluster of 4 callmanager
servers.  We have bought 4 new servers and did a fresh
install of cm6 on all of them.  We have not run the
dma tool.  To clarify, does the dma tool only convert
device license units, meaning I will need to contact
licensing for the node license and platform license
for each server?  Do we only need one platform license
or is that one each per server?

Also during installation, I know the system prompts if
you are doing a fresh install or upgrade.  If I did
the fresh install, is it possible to bring over the
dma tar file?  If so, where?  Thanks in advance!

Regards,
Roy
