How to diagnose misconfigurations or network issues when RM rejects what seem to be valid RDNG Analyst Tokens?
When attempting to perform RM project operations, while licensed through a Rational Token License Server, when the user has been granted access to the RDNG Analyst Token license, we encounter the rejection "the server does not permit the operation" and the Detail shows: Reviewing the /opt/IBM/Jazz rm.log file: 017-05-16 17:48:40,589 [ Default Executor-thread-86] INFO m.rdm.fronting.server.license.ILicenseCheckService - An error response was received from the Jazz Team Server.

Message: Internal error Current User: https://some.jazz.com:9443/jts/users/patriciaHow can an administrator diagnose this further to determine why what appear to be legitimate tokens from an IBM Rational Token License Server are not accepted by the RM License Check Service? |

Token licenses are managed through the JTS license service.

The jts.log was not helpful. However, the advice to recheck the License Administration page and its settings proved to be effective.
Despite all the positive green lights that servers are accessible and that tokens are available and that users have been granted tokens, the "IBM Rational Common Licensing Service" setting way down at the bottom was missing the entry for the actual FlexLM (IBM Rational Token License Server) port@hostname.
QED: Check every field over and over and do not rely on Green indicators to assume that the licensing has been entirely provisioned.
