Hi,

Which version of VIO have you deployed and which version is the license for?

To license VIO:

Prerequisites

• Install VMware Integrated OpenStack.
• Obtain your VMware Integrated OpenStack license key from the License Portal.

Procedure

1. In the vSphere Client, select Menu > Administration.
2. Under Licensing, click Licenses.
3. Open the Assets tab and select Solutions.
4. Select VMware Integrated OpenStack 5.0 and click Assign License.
5. Click New License and enter your VMware Integrated OpenStack license key and name.
6. Review the license information and click OK.

For my case,

    All other VMware license key is done, except for VIO license key activation. Currenly it's in evaluation mode.

I am not sure I have to remove the evaluation mode first before I can activate the VIO license key succesfully.

I want to make sure nothing wrong will happen again sincce already deploy VM via VIO and application is running

just want to activate key before evaluation mode is expired.

Thanks
