Situation

Customer installed Access Manager SP1 evaluation build (build 3.1.1) which was obtained from https://dl.netiq.com. It is possible to upgrade this system from the eval build to an official no-eval build, thereby removing the time bomb logic. What tools are available to confirm that the time bombed version has been officially removed and updated with a non time bombed version?

Resolution

The following tools will indicate whether the current system is running the evaluation or non evaluation build:

1) Message on Identity Server login screen stating it's an eval version
2) Health check states it an eval version
3) When expiration occurs will get the error message in the catalina.out
