Yet another licensing question...

I just updated the licence key on a 3.31 Level 4 box and it is now saying upgradeable to V6.x… Is that right - I am not complaining just wanting to check! I know that updating the key should get me an upgrade to V4.x but do I then get +2 versions as well?

If I remember correctly v4 was a free upgrade to everyone, so yes that should be correct.

It’s correct. From time to time, we throw in an additional +1 version because we’re awesome.

That IS awesome!

On some units when I click on update licence key I get ‘invalid key’ - I tried a unit this morning (that had failed yesterday) and it updated… Is this a ‘glitch’?

Ah - think I just realised - the failing ones are on 3.6 and doesn’t it need to be 3.25 to recognise the new key format? The one I tried today is 3.25 and worked - I guess I didn’t try that one yesterday! Confused by the version numbers again - thought 3.6 > 3.30 but not so…

So now I need to get hold of a later version of 3.x - x86 version…

Thanks

“update key” button is added only in v3.28 I believe. Previously there was a different button with different functionality, for buying keys. To get “new format” keys, you need v3.28 or newer, and only then use the update key button.
