I don’t see that you’re out of compliance. Where are you seeing that?

If you see, its showing as unassigned devices. We had purchased 150 Licenses, but number of Ext configured are 188, and showing under as Unassigned Devices.

That doesn’t necessarily mean that you’re out of compliance. It just means that you have devices that are not associated with a user. Apart from that, licenses can be borrowed from an upper tier, so even if you don’t have enough licenses in one tier it could borrow from an upper tier if there are available licenses.

Where do you get the number 188 from? I see that you have 138 users that are associated with one or more devices and 38 devices that are not associated to any user.

We dont have the licneses in the uppe Tier  to borrow..my point is if we dont procure additional licneses, these Phone will not stop working.?

No they will not stop to work if you were out of compliance, and as you are not nothing else will happen either. If you where to be out of compliance what will happen is that you get a grace period and if you don’t fix the compliance issue before the end of the grace period then the database will be locked, meaning that you cannot do any configuration changes.

As @Roger Kallberg mentioned, all your licenses are authorized. you dont have any licensing issues.  Unassigned devices are those configured as anonymous. No owner associated for those  devices.

 

You can use Cisco Device Assignment Tool to assign the Owner in bulk.
