Make sure all ORACLE environment variables are set and accessible for the logged-in user on that server (Server user field value).
Note
The database user should be the normal user with Read/Write permissions to the Database schema.
Windows
Ensure that the "ORACLE_HOME" environment variable is set for the logged-in user (Server user field value) on that server.
UNIX

The user whose credentials are being used by the License Utility to connect to this server:
Has BMC_AR_SYSTEM_HOME mapped to the correct directory and exported in the .profile file. For example: Export BMC_AR_SYSTEM_HOME=/<dir1>/<dir2>/ARSystem
The $BMC_AR_SYSTEM_HOME/db/LicenseReport.txt file has read access permission for the non-root user.
