So your license is obsolete, what exactly does that mean? \u00a0By default a Load Tester license is not set to expire unless it is a temporary license. \u00a0An obsolete license essentially means that the license version does not match the Load Tester version number.<\/p>\n

When a license is mismatched, the following message appears:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

As you can see on the License Key Summary, the version code is listed as 4.2, however the current version of Load Tester I have installed is 4.3.<\/p>\n

When a license shows up as obsolete, you have two options:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Match up the license version with a downgraded version of Load Tester.<\/li>\n
  2. Use an upgraded license that matches the Load Tester version number.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Once you decide on what option works best for you, the first step is to deactivate the obsolete license. \u00a0Once the license has been deactivated you can either install a corresponding version of Load Tester or activate the corresponding license on the currently installed version of Load Tester.<\/p>\n

    Matching the license version to the Load Tester version number will eliminate the obsolete license message.<\/p>\n
