I have a ten user CAL installed. Under issued licenses it
shows only 6 have been issued but that none are available.
What happened to the extra licenses?

Also we have had some hard drives fail that were on
systems that already had licenses. I named the re-install
the same client name but it took up an extra license
anyway. Why is this?
 
Can't explain the first problem.

The licenses that were installed on the clients that had a hard
drive failure are lost. If these TS CALs were installed after SP3,
then they have an expiration date and will automatically be
returned to the Licensing Server within 52-89 days after their
last usage. You can check this in the TS Licensing manager.
If these TS CALs were installed prior to SP3, they are permanently
allocated to the clients and you will have to call the
Clearinghouse to get them re-issued.

Make sure that you install at least SP3 on your TS and LS before
calling the Clearinghouse, to avoid the same problem with the new
licenses in the future.
