Problem

How to transfer license keys from one system to another.

Resolving The Problem

The license keys are specific to a serial number. However, the Transfer ePoE option from Entitlements can be used to transfer keys from one system to another system. https://www.ibm.com/servers/eserver/ess/ProtectedServlet.wss
Select the "My inventory" tab then choose the Designated machine.
Under Software license click the Entitlements tab, then select the licenses you wish to transfer.
