# Satellite-table-related-feature-blocked-due-to-fuse-exceeded_686074726
## Problem

The SMAX license report cannot be generated, as reported by Decathlon: [https://us2-smax.saas.microfocus.com/saw/Request/318867/general?TENANTID=488503157](https://us2-smax.saas.microfocus.com/saw/Request/318867/general?TENANTID=488503157)

The license report no longer track any more usage data.

This was reported on Decathon 1st, other large tenants will have same issue but not report yet.

When login SMAX tenant Agent UI and route to "People" to download the license usage report. You will find the license usage data is not up-to-date.

## Environment

EU8 and possible on any big tenants

## Cause

There was an old tenant level fuse satelliteMaxIdAllocations control the capacity (max ID) of all satellite tables. The default value of satelliteMaxIdAllocations is 10M. License report is based on lms\_metric\_<tenant-id> which is a satellite table, and costs about 15000/year. When NH go live every email was tracked in satellite table and the 10M fuse is quickly consumed. When the system running out of IDs, there is no new record can be generated into any satellite table and finally causing the license issues. The large tenant will quickly having this issue as there are too many emails. While usually dev tenant are safe.

The following features will be impacted, complete failure:

1. Smax license usage calculation
2. The new notification history
3. Expense line in Finance

Quick troubleshooting can based on error msg from below log file:

## Solution

#### Workaround:

Changing the fuse value to 500M or 1B for the big production tenants on all farms to avoid escalations on the 3 features. Detail value depends on how big the tenant using Satellite table, and when the final solution would applied.

Tenant setting name: satelliteMaxIdAllocations

Payload of 1B (PUT): {"satelliteMaxIdAllocations": "'1000000000'"}

Risk Impact Analysis  
1\. No binary change  
2\. No downtime  
3\. No impact to upgrade

### Final solution:

Remove the fuse which is not meaningful/useful.

Risk Impact Analysis  
1\. Only binary change to ignore the fuse; can be fix in a patch and not necessary through upgrade  
2\. No downtime  
3\. No impact to upgrade
