Mark,

There have been some problems in the past with running the license server on an MS Windows 2012 server.
It crashed at regular intervals (like on Monday mornings).
I do not know what exactly solved the problem but I do know that if you run the latest combination (XPP V9.1 and 2012R2) the problem has definitely been resolved.
Somewhere my brain tells me that switching to 2012R2 was the fix in combination with version 11 of the rlm license manager...but my brain could be lying to me

I would beg to differ - we are still periodically getting the Monday Morning crashes - the last one was 26th December - at least it had crashed by 28th December. We are still, on average getting these once a month - we keep reporting it but no change. We are on the latest patch sets.

Well in Italy the problem went away when we moved to 2012R2.
What version of windows are you running?

We are still on 2008R2 but SDL support have not said that 2012R2 will solve the issue. We also "think" we had heard that this happened on Linux as well which may mean that Windows was actually not the main issue.

For what it's worth, we're running XPP 9.1.1 on 2012 R2 with no problem. There were some license-related hiccups during the initial install, however.
