Duplicate license hashes: [024DEFA548A11E0E70C3EA335E9EC942B9260CBA9233DE5F1512CB841705A8B1;], also present on the peer(vlmmk109) with guid 25402F11-A078-4A73-8930-7C5FC16B71C5</P> <P>I looked at my other indexers, and they are setup the same. Did I miss something? </P> Tue, 19 Feb 2013 19:56:37 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Security/license-error/m-p/37012#M13774 a212830 2013-02-19T19:56:37Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Security/license-error/m-p/37013#M13775 <P>so according to the message vlrtp98 and vlmmk109 have the same license.<BR /> please verify if this is the case, and are not single license-masters.<BR /> If they have the same license-master this should not occur.<BR /> if you have a search-head you could use make it a license-slave. </P> Wed, 20 Feb 2013 07:30:58 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Security/license-error/m-p/37013#M13775 yannK 2013-02-20T07:30:58Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Security/license-error/m-p/37014#M13776 <P>Looks like the issue was the the peer had not finished validating it's connection (it was in a "Initial" state).
