Re: [Xen-API] Re: [Xen-users] XCP 5.0 Your license has expired. Please contact yoursupport representative

[Jonathan Ludlam <jonathan.ludlam@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The license expiry problem is a known issue with the recent unstable 
snapshots. It's possible to get around it by stopping xapi, then editing 
the file '/var/xapi/state.db' - search for 'expiry' and replace the date 
with a much later one.
When you next start xapi, it'll cap the expiry date to the current day + 
30 days so you'll have to do this again then if you don't want to 
upgrade to the next snapshot we'll be posting, in which this behaviour 
is fixed.
Hope this helps,

Jon
