that sounds like a VAR problem.  if I'm buying from a VAR, I expect the 
system to arrive as ordered and configured.

As we buy direct from HP (big corp), I *ALWAYS* go through the entire 
'quickspec' page on any HP gear, carefully studying the options and 
SKU's, any such licenses should be clear there.    For example, I 
*always* get the full ILO license.
