License system notifications
IBM QRadar Console manages all the licenses in the deployment. Daily system notifications generate before and after a license expires.
The following table displays the QRadar components that depend on active licenses.
| Type of expired license | Results |
|---|---|
| Console | When the QRadar Console license expires, event sources or flow sources that are forwarded directly to the Console are not processed or stored. Existing data is not affected. Until the Console license is renewed, direct event sources to a managed host with a valid license in the deployment. |
| Managed host | When a managed host license expires in your deployment, host context is disabled on that managed host. The expired appliance does not process event or flow data. |
| Feature | When a feature license expires, such as X-Force, the feature stops receiving data updates. The feature relies on the latest data stream provided by X-Force. |
