This used hardware is verified and certified and then resold.  There is software that is acquired as well which is where these licenses are soruced.  There is no license generation software at that site.  Since the software is owned by the companies doing the upgrade, a transfer of license is required and is what is being offered.

That bit I understand Dan.

What I am asking is why HPE doesn't have an operation to print new
licences on demand for HPE-owned products. It's free money for HPE
especially if HPE make it clear the licences come without any form
of software support.
