Configuring license and expiration notification

This procedure describes how to specify when to send expiration notifications, and the recipients of the notification emails.

  1. Open Management Console.
  2. Go to System > Licensing and Expiration.
  3. Click Configure Notification.
  4. Check the Send notification box.
  5. In the Days before expiration field, specify the number of days in advance that you want to be notified of a pending license, software, or data expiration. This is the default value. You can specify a different notification period for each license item on the System > Licensing and Expiration page.

    For example, if you want to be notified 30 days before items expire, specify 30.

  6. Under Recipients, click the Add button and enter the email address you want to receive the expiration notification email. You can multiple email addresses if needed.
  7. Click Save.

You have now specified recipients for the notifications and how far in advance of expiration to send the notification email. If you have not already done so, you must configure a mail server to use to send the emails. Notifications will not be sent until a mail server has been configured.

Note: By default the system will send expiration notifications for all items that expire (licenses, databases, software components, for example). You can disable expiration notifications for specific items by going to System > Licensing and Expiration.
