v4.3.1 on sles 11.1

just finished a enterprise eval so when i logged in today i got some over quota messages. i made sure in Manager > Licensing that it is now Free lic model.

my daily indexing volume is ~150MB, so why these warning messages? it has thus disabled searching per the Free model, why?

Did you ever find a solution other than waiting for 30 days?

Well according to the log messages you have exceeded the indexing volume three times (which means a 30 day search shutdown).

To overcome this you will either have to wait 30 days for search to return or perhaps do a clean install and migrate over your data.

well, according the the stats for _internal index my daily indexing doesnt surpass 160MB. and, how could i exceed the quota if i had 50GB trial lic installed and then went to free, these messages came instantly right after the trial lic expired and i switched to free.
