I have a Customer who failed to use a IQ_VLDBMGMT license after upgrading IQ16 SP03 to IQ16 SP08.

Error :
=====

     Could not execute statement.
     Authorization required to attempt checkout IQ_VLDBMGMT license
      SQLCODE=-1006276, ODBC 3
     State="HY000" Line 1, column 1

      create dbspace RYOHIST using file
      sybdata11 '/export/RYOPRD/sybdata/sybdata03', file sybdata12 '/export/RYOPRD/sybdata/sybdata04'

Environment

     - IQ16 (more than) SP08.x

Cause

     New license checkout behavior requires the DBA to authorize access to any optionally licensed feature.
     SAP IQ will not attempt to check-out an optional license by default from IQ16SP08.

Resolution

Run sp_iqlmconfig with the allow or disallow parameter to enable or disable an optional license.
The ALL keyword enables or disables all optional licenses, except IQ_VLDBMGT:

- sp_iqlmconfig 'allow', 'ALL'  // enable all, except IQ_VLDBMGT
- sp_iqlmconfig 'disallow', 'IQ_SECURITY'  // disable IQ_SECURITY     

Use the IQ_VLDBMGT and <quantity> parameters to change the number of available IQ_VLDBMGT licenses:

- sp_iqlmconfig 'allow', 'IQ_VLDBMGMT', '8'   // increase by 8
- sp_iqlmconfig 'disallow', 'IQ_VLDBMGMT', '2'  // decrease by 2
