Thanks, Wilm. I did a DIR/FULL on all three files and they are all the 
same FID/file.

That explains the behavior.

Now, for the fix. Will this work? On each node:

$ COPY SYS$COMMON:[SYSEXE]LMF$LICENSE.LDB -
     SYS$SPECIFIC:[SYSEXE]LMF$LICENSE.LDB
$ LICENSE MODIFY VAX-VMS . . . /INCLUDE=nodename
$ LICENSE LOAD

Remove the LICENSE MODIFY and LICENSE LOAD commands from the 
node-specific startup scripts.

Reboot both nodes.

If I understood you correctly, this will ensure that each node uses its 
own private LMF$LICENSE.LDB.
