Hello, 

We have renewed the support/maintenance contract for the CommCell via the Maintenance Advantage portal and received a new license XML file.

Current license configuration:

  • License type: Permanent
  • Mode: Production
  • Support/Maintenance: Expired ==> so we renewed this one for 1 year 

 

Question:

Before applying the new license XML file :

Will applying the new license file maintain the permanent license type, or will it change the license structure?

The customer is concerned that applying the renewed support license might:

  • Remove or modify the existing permanent license entitlements
  • Convert from permanent to term/subscription licensing
  • Impact production backups

My expectation is this license file only update the support/maintenance expiration date
But I need to prove it to the customer 
Can you help me please

Thanks.
Best regards,
