The licensing has significantly changed between version 10.96.1 and 10.96.2. Normally. a change of this level would require users upgrading a system to also upgrade their licenses using the Web Licensing Utility, but version 10.96.2 was specifically enhanced to support using an existing 10.96 or 10.96.1 license.
This compatibility with existing 10.96 or 10.96.1 licenses works best with systems that do not share a license between multiple FrameWorX servers. An easy way to determine if you need to upgrade your license after upgrading your software is to open Platform Services Configuration, go to the License tab, and view the License Location.
If your License Location is set to Local License Key, then you should not need to upgrade your license in the Web Licensing Utility after upgrading your software.
If your License Location is set to Remote License, especially if you have multiple servers looking at the same remote license server, then it is best to upgrade your license in the Web Licensing Utility after upgrading your software to ensure you have a proper license for everything you have purchased.
