Resolved issues from installing 3.6

• The License Server ran into grace period.
• Unable to see the Usage Details in the paired redundant License Server.
• OI Server Professional was acquiring license from the Backup Server instead of the Primary Server.
• Trend could not see the license. Trend was not running on the Historian Server even when everything was local and Historian was running fine.
