Managing Technology Package and Throughput Licenses

Requesting a New Virtual UDI

The Cisco CSR 1000V license is node-locked to the vUDI. If you clone the Cisco CSR 1000V to a new VM instance, the vUDI is in most cases automatically updated when the router first boots up on the cloned machine. However, if the vUDI is not automatically updated, you must manually request a new vUDI on the cloned VM instance.

Caution Requesting a new vUDI will invalidate the existing license. If you later need to rehost the license due to a system failure, you may need to perform additional steps on the Cisco Software Licensing portal. For more information on rehosting the Cisco CSR 1000V license, see Appendix A, “Rehosting the Cisco CSR 1000V License.”.

Perform the following step in EXEC mode:
