Question on changing NTP servers with VMware CUCM 8.6

[Paul McGurn]

HI all,

If you change the NTP server references in CUCM OS Configuration > System > NTP Server References, will that force you to re-host the licenses for CUCM?  The UI itself doesn't give me the feeling that would be the case, but I know changing the DNS servers would force that, so I'm a bit paranoid about it.

Thanks!

Yes, if you change the primary NTP server value then you will need to rehost the license.  See the following for details/confirmation:

There is a 30 day grace period after changing any of the License MAC values.
