The VIO evaluates whether the replacement license has been affected or not, and whether it needs to be shut down before it can be replaced.

The VIO license evaluation period has expired. Do I need to stop and reassign the license first?What is the impact of assigning licenses now?

Thank you for your answer.1572420459(1).jpg

Additional question:

The VIO version is 4.1.Should I shut down the VNF before reassigning the license to the VIO?

For evaluation license expired, NFV feature will be disable and show warning message in UI to reminder the license expired

can assign license key during deployment running and when assigning the license,  the neutron and nova will be restarted quickly

hello , thanks for your reply, and as your description , the openstack service like nova and neutron will get restarted ,so it may be safer to shutdown  the VM first that managed by VIO
