Licensing Issue - can't license past old VM key limit

We bought an additional 75 pack license for SRM Std 6.1.1.  Gave us 2 packs of 75 licenses.  combined those into 1 key and added to vcenter and removed the others.  when trying to protect more than 75 vms, get an error that we are out of licenses.  have been working with vmware support to no avail.  have rebuilt everything in the environment and connected to existing vcenter db.  my guess is there is some entry in the db that is "stuck".  i've tried diffferent sized keys by splitting it up but no luck.

ideas?  any way to just use 2 different keys without combining into 1?

The maximum number of SRM standard licenses that can be used at a site is 75. To go beyond that you need enterprise licenses.
