License Notifications for JSA Appliances

Explanation

When a license expires on the console, a new license must be applied. When a license expires on a managed host, the appliance continues to process events and flows up to the rate that is allocated from the shared license pool.

When the license contributes EPS and FPM capacity to the shared license pool, the expiry might force the shared license pool into a deficit where it does not have enough capacity to meet the requirements of the deployment. In a deficit situation, JSA blocks access to capabilities on the Network Activity and Log Activity tabs is blocked.
