fwconsole sa activate xxxxx
If you are prevented due to a hardware lock, see: https://wiki.freepbx.org/display/FPG/How+to+Move+a+Deployment+ID+to+a+new+PBX
If you are out of resets, you can request one from a Customer Service and billing ticket: https://wiki.freepbx.org/display/FPAS/How+To+Open+A+Support+Ticket
xxxxx is the deployment ID on the Sangoma portal?
i activated the free version with the current ID - do i have to de-activate or anything before proceeding?
Maybe read what was linked?
i have read them
as i stated above i see ‘Hardware not locked, please activate’ at the bottom of the screen, not ‘Reset Hardware Lock’
i’m not sure what that means?
does it mean i have used all my resets?
So, did you ‘activate’ ?
no not yet
still not sure what i am trying to accomplish
i think i want my freepbx16 to have the same deployment ID as 15 had - i am assuming it would have if the upgrade had gone as planned
not sure that clicking the ‘activate’ button on the Sangoma portal is going to accomplish that
i am assuming that ‘fwconsole sa activate xxxxx’ with xxxxx being the original deployment ID will accomplish that??
That’s correct.
that fixed it - thanks
i think everything is back
i’ll switch over from my backup & check it out
FYI - it’s always a good idea to set your VM mac address in hyperV to static instead of dynamic. Your mac address could have changed during a reboot, which would break your licensing.
