What license version do you have ? If it's not 5.9 you'll need them converted/upgraded. ( IE you can't have 5.4 being served).
I found it easier to deploy the VA, un-register the hosts from the existing license server and re-register on the VA.
The VA comes with 45 day trial licenses so you can sort out the licensing during that time if you're wanting to get moving.
You can't have the 2 license servers running in parallel, and the license file must have the ip address of the VA when you load it. PP licensing always seems to be confusing !

Thank you for the help Ankur,
This approach makes the most sense, I wasn't sure about transferring the licenses though.
