Question
Plesk shows below warning:
You are currently operating within the grace period of your product license. To update your product license, select the Retrieve Keys option on the License Management page.
What is a grace period of license in Plesk? When does it start and when does it end?
Answer
First take a look at Home > Tools & Settings > License Information (previously License management):
- Next license key update
Grace period is a period (10 days) when the Next license key update came, but the license was not yet updated for some reason. Plesk will try to update the license every day via a daily cron task and when the license gets updated the warning will no longer be displayed. If license is not renewed/updated at the specific renewal date, it enters 10-days grace period.
During grace period all Plesk services are working as usual only the warning is displayed.
After these 10 days have passed and license update was not completed successfully, the license gets expired and the Plesk panel is not available anymore.
