If the license key for the deficient amount of capacity is not installed within the 30 days, the status
changes to Not Enough License, and the software application is disabled. If a permanent key with
more licensed capacity than the used capacity is installed, the meter license is deleted.

You need to estimate the amount of capacity which you want to use with the software application
before you purchase the permanent key, the term key, or the meter key.
