ISE 2.4 VM nodes and installed VM licenses

[jideji]

Team,

Please what happens after a month or more, if customer continues  to use more VM nodes than what they are licensed for. The release notes says alarms are displayed in the Alarms dashlet for every 14 days.

Release 2.4, if there is any mismatch between the number of deployed VM nodes and installed VM licenses, alarms are displayed in the Alarms dashlet for every 14 days

They will keep receiving alarms and be out of compliance. They can work with the ISE product managers through sales channels to get the appropriate licenses generated as well. Please reach out through sales channels.

Jacob,

Please refer to release notes for ISE 2.4 section Licensing Changes.

"If you have not purchased any ISE VM license before, refer to the ISE Ordering Guide to choose the appropriate VM license to be purchased. If you have purchased ISE VM licenses with no Product Authorization Key (PAK) associated, you can request VM PAKs by reaching out to ise-vm-license@cisco.com with Sales Order numbers that reflect the ISE VM purchase. This request will be processed to provide one medium VM license key for each ISE VM purchase you made in the past."

Also the services are not interrupted.

Thanks Pushyamitra, my initial question reference the release note. I believe Jason clarified that, the question was  what happened if the customer doesn't purchase additional VM license for an extended period, will anything happen besides the warning every 14 days and Jason answered that. Thanks again.
