Hi, I have 3 telephone licenses in the UCM that are about to expire. I would like to know what happens if we have too many registered phones and the license expires.
When first installed, the Unified Communications Manager is fully operational in demonstration mode for an evaluation period of 90 days, until it has successfully registered with the Cisco Smart Software Manager. After registration, the Unified Communications Manager communicates with Cisco Smart Software Manager periodically. The Unified Communications Manager reports the total license requirements by license type to the Cisco Smart Software Manager and then gets back the license status.
Licenses in the non-compliant state for Unified Communications Manager are enforced after a 90-day overage period. At the conclusion of the grace period, Unified Communications Manager enforces non-compliance with the following service degradation:
Devices and Users cannot be provisioned. Changing the configuration of a user that affects licensing (For example: the Enable/Disable IM and Presence and the Enable/Disable Mobility check boxes) is not allowed.
