To verify this is the case, check the UI -> About -> About RSA NetWitness Endpoint panel. Scroll down to the section with the line "LicenseComputerID=xxxxxxxxx" and "LicenseExpirationDate= M/DD/YYYY"
Take note of the LicenseSerialNumber (this will be used to fill out a case with the RSA Business Operations Group).
If the present date match's the expiration date, contact your sales rep to get the license renewed.
Next, verify the ComputerID number by opening a command prompt, change folders to <Drive>:\Program Files\RSA\ECAT\Server,
type ConsoleServer.exe /cid. You will see a pop-up box, click "I agree" and at the bottom of the box, you will find the Computer ID.
Compare that to the one in the about panel. If they are different, this means that the hardware platform has changed, and you will need to get a new license.
