Parts of the Feature Expiry Tab​

Distinguish the status of the vendor license in the Expiry column by color. These are:

  • Green - active license
  • Yellow - vendor license expires in three (3) weeks
  • Orange - vendor license expires in one (1) week
  • Red - expired license
note

The license status maximum expiration date is set to 2147483641 (i.e., GMT: Tuesday, January 19, 2038, 3:14:07 AM) by default. If your license expiration date is later than the default, it will show permanent.
You can configure this in the openit.cfg file in the Configuration directory, which is by default in C:\Program Files\OpeniT\Core\Configuration in Windows and /var/opt/openit/etc in Unix. Locate the LICENSE_STATUS_MAX_EXPIRY directive and set it to your desired value.

Example: openit.cfg
...
34. LICENSE_STATUS_MAX_EXPIRY    1690855349
...

This example sets the license status maximum expiration date to GMT: Friday, January 1, 2500, 12:00:00 AM.
