Obtaining a Rehost License if the System Fails
There may be cases when the Cisco CSR 1000v is not accessible due to a system failure and you need to
rehost the existing licenses to a replacement device. Examples of a system failure may include:
•
The VM instance that the Cisco CSR 1000v was installed on was removed.
•
The system server or host that the Cisco CSR 1000v VM instance was installed on experienced a hardware
failure.
In this case, you need to obtain a rehost license and install it on a new VM. If you have a perpetual license,
you can use the self-service rehosting process in the
Cisco Software Licensing portal
to obtain a rehost license.
The self-service rehosting process is only available for permanent licenses on the Cisco CSR 1000v. If
you have subscription term licenses installed, you must contact [email protected] for assistance.
Note
The following caveats apply if you are rehosting a perpetual license:
