IN LELOG DD:
License error: CPUID does not match. Expected:xxxx. Received from system: xxxx     

A:

The CPUID used to generate the license.dat file does not match the CPUID of this machine. You can obtain your CPUID by issuing the following command on your Z/OS console: /D M=CPU

Note: The license.dat file is obtained at MPT startup so if you make a change to the file you must 'bounce' MPT for it to be effective.
