Trial license bug

[lbhkshueler]

Hi guys,

right now i am evalutating splunk Enterprise on-premise. Firstly I chose it for uberAgent, but now I want to test monitoring our whole datacenter. Every time i try to set up the Exchange monitoring, the Enterprise trial license switches to free.

Thank you for your responses!

First, Are you using the trial Enterprise license?
Yes.
Is it in the period of trial yet?
Yes.

Wednesday I installed the splunk Enterprise trial. Later I wanted to test the Exchange monitoring. Installing Exchange apps and rebooting splunk kicked out the splunk enterprise trial license. The Exchange App trial license was valid.

From your post, I assume that I can only test the Exchange app with a paid splunk Entprise license (not trial).
