A. B. C. D.C.
Can't be a firewall issue, or the old delivery controller would have a license error as well.
Based on the information given, I would say they are not licensed for clustering.
The most likely cause of the error when entering the license code for the new delivery controller is option B: The existing license is for a lower version.
When creating a new delivery controller to scale up according to organizational needs, it is important to ensure that the licenses for the VM farm are valid and up-to-date. If the new delivery controller is using a license that is for a lower version than the current one being used, it will not be able to enter the license code and will return an error.
Option A: A firewall is blocking the port on the license server, is less likely to be the cause because if the firewall was blocking the port, the error would be related to connectivity and not the license code.
Option C: The existing license is not supported for clusters, is also less likely to be the cause because the old and new delivery controllers have already formed a cluster, which means that the license is supported for clusters.
Option D: The existing license has expired, is also less likely to be the cause, because an expired license would typically return an error message related to the expiration, rather than a failure to enter the license code.
In summary, option B is the most likely cause for the error when entering the license code for the new delivery controller in a VM farm.
