Abstract:
In virtualized environments a method of determining authorization to a resource cannot use a hardware specific identifier, such as a MAC address. As a result upgrading a virtual host may cause licenses associated with that host to be invalid, even though the upgraded virtual host should be authorized. Authentication methods and systems are disclosed such that a key may be shared with a second host along with a license file and, provided at least the second host has a key associated with its system identifier and a key associated with a license file, access to a licensed resource may be authorized.

Claim (Index 36):
The system of  claim 29 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to, upon determining the second host key is not in accord with the system identifier of the host (a) not authorize access to the resource; (b) copy the first host key, the second host key, and any additional host keys to a blacklist; (c) delete all keys, and (d) update the second host key to be associated with the known system identifier of the host.
