"Cannot add duplicate key" for "aspnet:MaxHttpCollectionKeys" Error Dialog in IIS Manager when editing the Configuration

To resolve this issue, the duplicate key has to be manually removed from the web.config file on the FlexNet Manager Suite presentation server.

WARNING: Making any changes to the web.config file will cause the AppPool to restart. Any active users that are currently using the Web UI may be interrupted and any long running processes such as reports will be aborted. It is recommended that this is done out of operation
hours.
WARNING: Making changes to the web.config file can cause the WebUI to fail to start up and stop working. Before making any changes, ensure you have backed up the web.config file to another location.

To make this change:
1. Open notepad.exe in Administrator mode.
2. Using notepad, open the web.config file found in the WebUI folder of the Flexnet Manager
Platform install folder (default location is "c:\Program Files (x86)\Flexera Software\FlexNet
Manager Platform\WebUI").
3. Search for the lines that starts with '<add key="aspnet:MaxHttpCollectionKeys"'. This will be
under the "<appSettings>" XML node. If more than one is found, remove the duplicate entry
(the entire line).
4. Save the file and close Notepad.

It is recommended that after a change is made to the web.config file, a full IIS restart is made. To do this, either restart from IIS OR through command-line on the presentation server open a command prompt window in Administration mode and run type "iisreset /restart" (ignore quotes) and press enter. All sites hosted by your IIS instances will be restarted, so it is recommended that this is done outside of normal operation hours.

Use direct Oracle inventory collection from the beacon. This is documented in the System Reference PDF

ARL updates may fail when points rule sets have been extended by a tenant

Have the SoftwareLicensePointsRule records manually removed by the specific tenants from the FNMS UI.
IOJ-2204981 Content libraries, Database

ARL Import process can require significant compliance database transaction log space, potentially failing with error: "The transaction log for database 'FNMSCompliance' is full due to 'ACTIVE_TRANSACTION'"

If the ARL update is failing due to this issue, the customer will need to make sure that the transaction log for the database can grow as needed. Typically, I've seen the need for around 160GB of space to get through this, but more may be needed.
Make sure that the setting for size limit of the transaction log in SQL Server is "unlimited", and that there is enough hard disk space for it to grow into.

It may also help to incrementally update the ARL. ie, instead of going from 2570 to 2588, do 2570 to 2577, then 2577 to 2578, then 2578 to 2580... etc...

Supplementary titles are not consuming PVU licenses correctly when unbundled

The only available workaround is to manually remove TemporalInstalledSoftwareSCD records for the primary titles on the affected devices. This will ensure license assignment will not consider supplementary titles in the bundles and assign them to correct licenses.
Note that doing this will cause the device to no longer consume against the primary title in previous reporting periods. This should only be done if previous reporting periods have been closed-off and audit reports saved.
