[cisco-voip] Cisco ELM license clarification

[Ryan Ratliff (rratliff)]

It is highly recommended to use a static mac address for your ELM VM for this reason.  You also need to keep this mac so you can reuse it if disaster recovery is required.
Important:
In a virtual environment, Enterprise License Manager requires a static MAC address to function properly.

The ELM UUID is based at least in part off of the mac address of the vm. So when you move to a new host that changes and you have to rehost the ELM licenses.

Hi,
if I build cucm in my vmware lab, install license in ELM and after I move all to my customer vcenter (I maintain ip address hostname and mac address),
ELM goes in demo mode and I need to rehome my license.
Why? How it calculate uuid?
Thanks
