Our devops team was performing a system upgrade from Linux Ubuntu 18.04 to 22.04 late last night. When they completed the migration, they discovered to their horror that the SystemID had changed. Not knowing what to do at that hour of the night, they searched for a solution. They found a link posted by Martin on the Google Groups:
www.openqm.com/emergency.htm They provided the required information and received the following back:
1. We are concerned that after 7 days pass, this license will expire. Can someone confirm?
2. What is the correct action to take? Our upgrades are going to take place off-hours, late in the evening.
3. Is this expected behavior that an O/S upgrade will change the system ID?
Any advice is appreciated.
