Authentication Services License Alerts
While the mangement console always allows you to add Unix hosts and manage local users and groups without a license, One Identity provides a free 30-day unlimited-use trial license that allows you to manage any number of hosts with Authentication Services 4.x.
License Alerts
After your license expires you will receive a "License" alert if you continue to use the product after the expiration date. The alert is triggered when you log into the console or update licenses from System Settings.
Usage Alerts
You will receive a "Usage" alert if you exceed the number of hosts allowed by your current product license.
